Some kid I'm arguing with (in good fun) said that Descendents were "a proto nu-metal/surf rock" band.

Someone please tell me I'm not going crazy. Back me up, here.

NortherlyNanook 03-03-2010 05:08 PM

if it was in good fun, isn't there a good possibility he was kidding

if you listen closely, though, you can hear a heavy descendents influence when you listen to linkin park

the lyrics to "Crawling" almost sound as much like a whiny teenager's diary as the lyrics to "Parents."

I love the bassline in that song.

Me too, bro.

After watching David Lynch's "Inland Empire" for the 4th time or so, I think I understand it. This is surprising because it took me way more viewings of Mulholland Drive before I think I got a handle on what was happening, ad Inland Empire seems way more confusing. I also think I finally understand Michael Haneke's "Cache" and I will end up watching "The White Ribbon" over break.

witchxrapist 03-04-2010 02:26 AM

Reminding me of Kage, talking about Inland Empire.

Totally hoping that strip club would have some sort of catch phrase like "the only meat a vegan can eat is PUS[size=2]S[/size]Y" or something.

ugh i dont have the patience to ever watch inland empire again but mulholland dr, cache, and the white ribbon all rule so cool

I was really frustrated with Inland Empire at first, but then did the tortuous task of watching it another time or two and still not understanding it but seeing more how things fit together. Me and a buddy actually took notes when watching it one time through. Watching it now (I screened it for some friends, one of which really really enjoyed Mulholland Dr.), I think I understand it, and it is incredibly rewarding. Now I see Inland Empire as a masterpiece.

It's similar to Cache in that it is about memory. Inland Empire, to me, is about a woman who can't learn from her mistakes or perhaps not fall into a well documented trap (infidelity), and also about how film can be more than mundane entertainment (like the bunny scenes) and we can use storytelling to teach lessons (like...actions DO have consequences) and to represent reality instead of Hollywood fantasy (a common Lynch theme). Her blindness to the past is shown through Lynch's decision to jumble the past, as it makes the audience blind to the character's past as well. Nikki is doomed to fail because she ignores reality and lives in the Hollywood fantasy where everything can be wrapped up in 30 minutes with no hard feelings.

Cache, on the other hand, I think is more political. It's about how victims have memories that last far longer than those of the perpetrator. Majid is obviously deeply affected by his mistreatment as a child by Georges (and his people's mistreatment by the French government), while Georges is able to live comfortably never thinking of what he did (or what the French people have done to Algerians) until he is forced to witness it. I think the long shot is used because it is entirely objective, and hints that the facts are presented in no biased manner, and that the truth (not the opinion of the Algerians or Majid) is revealed to Georges, who has to face it and live with it.

Both movies are absolutely incredible.

Well "in good fun" meant on Facebook, haha.

But no the kid was serious. He said he considered them more of a surf band that was "proto nu metal," not a punk band.

So last night I went to a bar with some friends and there ended up being a really good punk show there. One band covered "tourette's." by Nirvana. Sounded like the Das Oath cover. It ruled.

i found myself at a punk house show in richmond, va last night
