by Maarten Goldstein, Jan 02, 2002 5:15pm PSTTonight's ER is brought to you by this page. I'm not sure how I feel about that.
- You got hacked. AOL's new slogan? Could be. Thanks hal900. - Stupid Euro washing facts. - The space crew was zapped this week, as part of tests to see what kind of influence space flights has on the spinal cord. - Apparently it's real easy to be dead in Ontario. - Apparently German students are dumb, after they long thought they were rather clever.Lastly, America's real weapon in the war against terrorism? Glitter. Thanks anon@vt.edu

okay, Lord of the Rings and my thoughts on it:
Not nearly as good as people say.. in fact, it's worse than Vanilla Sky.
There are no special effects worth mentioning, story ends abruptly, it climaxes and then calms down to climax again.. and again.. I must say I expected a lot better.
Will not reveal any plot, but 99% of the stuff they use reminds me of other movies..
Hate me for this, but this movie sucked. A lot.
Thanks!

In the spirit of the Shackreviews, I'll also mention that I like:
DJ Shadow, Tool, NIN, Radiohead, Quannum, Latyrx, Pig
I don't limit my tastes to any style, but I like very few artists of a given style.
I'd say that Amon Tobin is most similar is tone/feel to propellerheads. It's got a lot of vitality and a soundtracky feel to it.
His musical style is very unique, however. It's sort of breakbeat, drum 'n' bass, meets jazz, bossa nova. Very weird, but it works really well. It's all composed of samples, btw, and has no lyrics.
Check out the following from supermodified.
Get your snack on
four ton mantis
If you like those, check out the rest of the album. Here's a review:
http://motion.state51.co.uk/reviews/619.html
Something else worth noting is how narrative his tracks are. Despite having no lyrics, they have a tight narrative feel to them. With four ton mantis, for example, I really envision this village waking up, sounding a alarm bell, and then this monster drags itself out of the jungle and proceeds to stomp through the city. While that may sound stupid, he pulls it off very well without hurting the 'cool music' aspect of the song.
If anyone out there wants to second me, I'd appreciate it. I'm just trying to spread the word. I'd never heard of him until a couple weeks ago.
