My favourite track is "Hook, Line and Sinker".

Love in the Time of Science?

I really like that album. She's a great singer and she's damn fine. I think she is working on a new album.

Peter Jackson made a great choice.

Those who say that the totalitarian state of the Soviet Union was not "real" Marxism also cannot admit that one simple feature of Marxism makes totalitarianism necessary:  the rejection of civil society. Since civil society is the sphere of private activity, its abolition and replacement by political society means that nothing private remains. That is already the essence of totalitarianism; and the moralistic practice of the trendy Left, which regards everything as political and sometimes reveals its hostility to free speech, does nothing to contradict this implication.

When those who hated capital and consumption (and Jews) in the 20th century murdered some hundred million people, and the poster children for the struggle against international capitalism and America are now fanatical Islamic terrorists, this puts recent enthusiasts in an awkward position. Most of them are too dense and shameless to appreciate it, and far too many are taken in by the moralistic and paternalistic rhetoric of the Left.

what do you think of it?  i kind of thought it was bad but maybe i didnt give it a chance.  on first few listens it didnt sound nearly as good as their first album.  also, have you seen their new video that michel gondry co-directed?  its pretty neat.
Christopher Nolan's directive was clear to everyone in the cast and crew: Use CGI only as a last resort.

1 listen so far and it's doing it for me. It's not as good as the first album, but it took me 3 listens to like that one. I'm seeing it more like a companion piece to Highly Evolved (I think these are all older songs from that period anyway), and their next one will probably take off in a slightly newer direction. Or something.

But yeah, I dig it.
