"3 eps" good, IMO.   I really like all their albums.

""Money doesn't come into it. It never has. I do what I do because it's all that I am." - Morrissey

"Lacan stressed more and more in his work the power and organizing principle of the symbolic, understood as the networks, social, cultural, and linguistic, into which a child is born. These precede the birth of a child, which is why Lacan can say that language is there from before the actual moment of birth. It is there in the social structures which are at play in the family and, of course, in the ideals, goals, and histories of the parents. This world of language can hardly be grasped by the newborn and yet it will act on the whole of the child's existence."

Christopher Nolan's directive was clear to everyone in the cast and crew: Use CGI only as a last resort.

Quote from: themodernage02Love Is Hell -- Ryan Adams


Wonderful
:yabbse-thumbup:
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.

I will seriously consider it. It has a wonderful sleeve at any rate; otherwise, I've never heard of them. What do they sound like?

Yay for Mesh's pick- I hope you really crank it up for "Teenage Wildlife" and "Ashes to Ashes."

Me (I've gotten hold of the tracks, though I don't feel a bit guilty about it because not only have I pre-ordered the most expensive edition w/ DVD included, but I also plan to buy several dozen regular copies to send out with my bills :)):



... it is gorgeous, exhilarating, vintage Morrissey. He's definitely back.

Quote from: godardianWhat do they sound like?

They sound like a good brit-pop band.  the lead singer, at times, sounds like Brett Anderson.  They're not riping off though, it's definetely one of the best albums I've heard this year.

I'm listening to the new Morrissey as well. I agree with Godardian, it's ace! Anyone seen his latest video?
