Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call, New Orleans
“Werner Herzog’s “Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call, New Orleans” creates a dire portrait of a rapist, murderer, drug addict, corrupt cop and degenerate paranoid who’s very apprehensive about iguanas.” - Roger Ebert
And he is played by Nicolas Cage…..
WHO WANTS TO SEE THIS MOVIE WITH ME!?

I am sorry for not doing an Extreme Metal Hunk this week (“extending your skip week from the previous week in a pretty dick manner,” says one of the e-mails). I am frankly more surprised by the varied degrees of emotions exhibited in these e-mails, as oppose to the fact that people (multiple!) actually took time out of their day to e-mail me. I never knew people could get so passionate about overtly detailed descriptions of facial hair and overly wordy dream Man dates.
Oh, and to the individual who e-mail me with “fagot” in the title, I’m sorry I didn’t “even take time out to do another LolCats” joke for the skip week. I’m aware that cats are “soothing” for the emotionally unbalanced. That’s why I use them when breaking bad news.
So apparently I have to announce that Extreme Metal Hunk will be back next Tuesday. I just got swamped with other projects to the point that I haven’t been posting at all lately. I’ll back to that soon enough, once the espresso enema finally kicks in.

Giles, vocalist and guitarist for Woolworm
Today I recorded vocals for the Vancouver indie-rock band Woolworm. I recorded bed tracks and guitar overdubs about a week ago and now we’ve finally made it to the last step of recording and - through trial and error and several videogame breaks - have finished the recording process.

Rented a Neumann TLM 103 vocal mic for this day. A $1000+ vocal mic mine for the simple cost of a $20 deposit.

Shot from my POV. Seriously, this is it. This is how EASY it is to record.

Felicity had a bit of trouble getting angry enough to yell sing her song. The final performance was impressive considering how little hate she has.

Guilty TV pleasure: LIE TO ME. Which, in my head, is actually called TIM ROTH SHOUTS AT PEOPLE A LOT EVERY WEEK. In fact, if you just took out all the other characters and plots and just had Tim Roth shouting at people a lot and generally being a bastard, it would be close to perfect. It is, I think, the final iteration of the last big cycle in American network TV drama — Middle-Aged Evil White Genius Guy Fucking With People. Which began, of course, with HOUSE, and has left behind bodies like SHARK (which never let James Woods really go to town in the way you know he can). I’m almost sad the cycle’s so clearly going away: because, let’s be honest, I’ve written kind of a lot of that…!

Supergod #1 by Warren Ellis and Garrie Gastonny.
I’ve waited for this for a while now and it is one of the few things - this year at least - that has completely lived up to the hype that surrounded it. Supergods: A world where Superheroes are the product of Government experiments that were aimed to create physical Gods. By a number of methods these heroes are made to be the salvation for the nation that created them and apparently all industrious nations made efforts to somehow make a superhuman. So far the story has really only gone into detail about one of these superhero/Gods, the one created by India, Krishna. He was made to solve the many problems of India - high crime rate, overpopulation, pollution - so, naturally, he solves the problem by killing everyone. He then destroys the entire nation of Pakistan by redirecting their own nuclear missiles and encapsulating the region in a force-field. There is also something about British Scientists trying to have sex with their Supergod, but it didn’t really go into detail.
So far so awesome! I highly recommend this to the kind of people that took time to read into all the symbolism and allusions found in Watchmen (i.e. lonely people).
