The Damned by Luchino Visconti (the massacre scene)
by The Damned is a 1969 Italian film. This scene portrays the so-called Nazi Night of the Long Knives. That night, Hitler gave order to massacre the critics of his internal opposition (SA), justifying his act as a crackdown on moral turpitude.
In fact, the leader of the SA was found in bed with a male soldier. This scene also portrays the reaction of Nazism to the increasing modernity, here symbolized by the sexual freedom of the soldiers. After you have seen this, any Lady GaGa efforts seems rubbish.

Bitches Brew sounds like contemporary architecture should be: a magical contamination of stray fluxes in an irresistible, sexual and penetrating brew.

Live at Pompeii by Pink Floyd (saucerful of secret track)
The Live at Pompeii title is an oxymoron. This is progressive rock performance in an ancient Roman amphitheatre, wrapped from an October-warm sunlight. Definitively magical.

The latest band to make LA proud is tropical-nu wave act Abe Vigoda. These guys are so new and so exciting that even your grandparents don’t know who they are. Yet! They describe themselves as tropical punk, but I like to think of them as nihilistic rockers — no form, no shape, just chaos. If LA’s new breed of punk popstars such as Health, Meiko Meiko and Pocohauntas make you tremble, then this band are sure to get you very worked up.

Ok, so that’s me up there on the right. Yup, rocking out in the 55DSL tee and feeling a little pleased with how it’s all going down. Well, actually, a disclaimer: it’s not … quite … me. I mean, I’m wearing the same shirt right now as he is, and I’m kinda the same height. But he isn’t the same person. We aren’t one. But I love this 55DSL shirt in the same way that he … ummm … loves himself. So I guess that we’re both damn happy. Read more
