Sure it's a cheesy, dated, sci-fi b-movie, but I like cheesy, dated, sci-fi b-movies, so not crap for me. But those who don't rent anything unless it is on the new release wall will be naturally peeved.

I'd take it over Cool Runnings, myself.

Mountain are harmless. Certainly not amazing or the greatest band ever, but they are fun and there is an audience for them. If you like generic '70s hard rock, you will be amused by them. Sorry if anyone gets offended by me saying generic, but it's not like they have ever pretended to be anything ot...

He's important historically to the origins of rock, whether someone enjoys him personally or not. Your favorite classic rock band may have borrowed a song or two from him here and there.

Tangerine Dream are hardly for everyone, but I like them. Check them out if you care about the origins of great ambient music.

CD-Rs are not preferred, but I understand why they exist. I try to own as few as possible. When a band starts out in this day in age, it is often more reasonable for them to begin with CD-R releases.

Conspiracy theories are fun. Does that mean I believe every single of them? No. But skeptics are boring. Open your mind and be entertained. That's all some conspiracy theories ask, as when you are watching a documentary. They are there to play Devil's Advocate and offer a different and often more ex...

It always makes me laugh when people say they have found the answer to the problems associated with sexual activity - Abstinence! Oh wow! What a novel idea! Nearly all adult humans have masturbated at some point or another in their lives. Many that say they never have are embarrassed and very well m...

Points from the newbie, who has been listening to Steve Albini and his recording projects for a number of years, despite that fact. 1. Saying Nirvana is controversial is not an attack. It's an observation about highly divided opinions about the merits of the band. 2. Okay, you are right. All Apologi...

Oh for fuck's sake. You are telling me to grow up? Why are you taking everything I say so personally? I'm just stating opinions and personal thoughts. Sue me. It seems like anytime this band comes up on a discussion board, a can of worms is opened. People start attacking each other over "music,...
