Repetitive you say, given his probably best known song is even more so... actually I am not sure where it is going and it is rate the song so might let us do that.

I have never been a fan of growling, mainly because few people do it well and that was not one of the exceptions. The instrumentals were not bad, pity the mastering took the brick wall approach. What few parts of the song that were understandable seemed like a fairly trite version of the "I am a teenager and should fight the power".

Wow that guy sounds a lot like Jello Biafra's spoken word stuff at the start there for me, however he was far less entertaining than him and seemed to have a weak understanding of astrophysics so I could not enjoy it on that level either.


Iggy Pop - Lust For Life
Album version for me but the single/film tie one that more might know is below.

3/5 - Not really my kind of music and what I expected from silent hill soundtracks (never played the series). It sounds a bit like background music for taking one of those candlelight baths.

Die Ärzte - Junge

I saw the uncut and the cut versions of that, both amusing videos. Anyway can't say I expected to hear a band that sound like that with a zombie themed song, the song was pretty good but I can not say I felt the need to look up other songs from the band.

Unfortunately, this video is not available in my country, but I know the song and don't like it all that much. I mean, I guess I could get behind it if it wasn't for the vocals, but there's just so many balls, they're almost touching and it doesn't really work as a funny song to me either. 2/5 because its at least got the decency to be comparably short, if I remember correct.

2.5/5 I didn't really understand the humour which I believe was the main point to the song. I do like comedic songs though as I am a fan of Jon Lajoie and Bo Burnham but I just didn't understand :s



This song always brings back good memories..

5/10 because I can't stand listening to that AGAIN. Also I wouldn't really call it a classic... It hasn't even been 5 years yet...

3/5 I used to hear it all the time at the store I worked at, so it's become a part of my subconscious at this point lol. Nice to hear it on something other than a shitty little loudspeaker in a meat cutting room.

One of their best and yet most underrated works. Very dark and beautiful at the same time.

2/5 No offence but it sounds a bit like scene music, albeit better than most scene music. Not the type of Post-Hardcore I would listen to, but still bearable.

Loma Prieta - Fly By Night Really into Emo last few months, but Emo Violence is a whole other thing.
