THE IMITATION GAME, starring Benedict Cumberpatch (like, if you didn't already know he was English, you see that name and its like, Oh yeah, English.) and Keira Knightley who managed not to annoy me. Good movie. Doubtless Ben will get an Oscar nom and it is well deserved. Pretty hard to translate a ...

Re: Share a song you love right now
1ggZjrTEsEQ local band named after the NIN song "Head Like a Hole" they have somewhat outgrown their early influences. I like them a lot: loud as hell, sense of humour, not just lurve songs. They do a killer cover of that guy Bruce somethings song "I'm on Fire". they have a new album coming out in ...

singles have (at least to me) always seemed like way more of a UK thing than a US thing. think about the great singles from bands like The Smiths, The Jam, Elvis Costello, Siouxsie and the Banshees, Magazine, etc. there really was no analog in the US. sure, Madonna released a lot of singles (which ...
