Aquired
No matter how satisfying it may be to instantly get albums via the internet (or films for that matter) it never has been as satisfying as having a tangible copy. The album artwork is always a huge plus, and remember when the "Thank You" section helped you find another band that you never knew existed? List is recently bought albums/films with tidbits. |
1 | | Albums
I learned that I cannot go to a used CD store when I have large amounts of cash. |
2 | | Pitchshifter www.pitchshifter.com
My band-mate really enjoys the band, and after a little exposure I have started to really enjoy this album; "Genius" and "Please Sir" especially. |
3 | | The Prodigy The Fat Of The Land
I really couldn't pass up an actual copy of this, one of my few 5's. |
4 | | Marilyn Manson Holy Wood (In The Shadow Of The Valley Of Death)
After seeing the vinyl artwork I had to get an actual copy, besides which I'm in a huge Manson mood atm. |
5 | | Marilyn Manson Antichrist Superstar
Am working on getting his discography, and this albums tied rating wise with Holywood |
6 | | Marilyn Manson The Golden Age of Grotesque
Purchased for "(S)aint" - also was the 2 disc version so I was pretty happy. So far this album is my favorite of his, the mix of Trent's leftover influence combined with Manson's seemingly personal directed angst makes for a superb album. |
7 | | Films
After picking up 12 films, I whittled it down to 7. |
8 | | Strangeland
Watched this and was never so pumped to go start hooking, next time the fetish troupe offers I might consider it a bit more seriously. An interesting soundtrack mixed with a tad of industrial mindset/visuals. |
9 | | A Nightmare On Elm Street (new version)
This had the same guy who played Rorschach in it, already made the film good imo. The only real dislike here was the horrible beginning, it's pacing was seriously strange. |
10 | | 1408
This was the surprise of the night, I really ended up loving this film. A diabolical/evil hotel room that wants you to die, and is well made? Great stuff. |
11 | | Labyrinth
I can admire Bowie and everything he's done, but no matter how hard I try I can't enjoy more than a few of his tracks; this film features on of them. |
12 | | V For Vendetta
When I first saw this I was really surprised at home good it was, even now it's still a wonderful film with an eclectic mix of many ideas/arguments. Sadly Anonymous has ruined the Guy Fawkes mask :( |
13 | | The Unborn
Haven't been able to watch this yet, saving it for another movie night extravaganza. I enjoy the strange contortions that take place on the trailer, it brings out a nice primal fear of disturbed/malformed humans. |
14 | | Pan's Labyrinth
Always wanted to see this, hopefully another movie night comes around soon. |
