  1. It would seem to me that Silent Army or Fought to Fight It would make the best singles. But I haven't heard all the demos so I dunno.
  2. MOE!!! 1. The Smashing Pumpkins 2. Matthew Good / Band 3. Nobuo Uematsu 4. Coldplay 5. Goo Goo Dolls 6. Radiohead 7. Yes 8. Christopher O'Riley 9. Alice in Chains 10. Ryan Adams It pains me to leave off Rush and related amazingness. The Goo Goo Dolls were the first band I ever found on my own when I was a young teenager and they are a sentimental favorite of mine to this day.
  3. I'll give you bonafide lovin! oh oh oooh
  4. My story is clearly epic ;)
  5. I was introduced to Matthew Good Band by a Canadian chap named Aubrey who lives in Vancouver. I knew Aubrey from a message board I've been posting on since 1999. Anyway after much refusal to listen to MGB because of my need to reject certain things that people over-hype (MGB was being over-hyped at this time on that message board) I finally gave Hello Time Bomb a spin. Then I listened to Strange Days, Fearless, Euphony, and something else. I was instantly intrigued and soon after I was hooked. So I got into MGB right around mid to late 2000 when Beautiful Midnight was still relatively fresh. Living in New York the only way I could have known about Matthew Good Band was through the Internets. Since I didn't have access to his albums at that point I just got to downloading tracks. Eventually I started buying albums on mymusic.com because of the cheaper shipping to the US. However, I did own the Beautiful Midnight US (clean) version because that was easy to find and cheap. I played that so much it's unbelievable; mostly in the Summer on the stereo behind me while playing Diablo II, but also in many other situations. Many of the tracks from Beautiful Midnight appeared on the many mix CDs I would make. I remember not liking Audio of Being when it came out, but now I can't believe I had such a view. So Audio of Being and beyond have been new experiences as they were released, but it was fun to go back and experience the previous albums and get a sense of the chronology. In that way Underdogs doesn't really connect with me like it probably does for others, but Last of the Ghetto Astronauts has a much stronger connection with me. I dunno, chalk it up to my early downloads. If I were just being introduced to Matt Good now I wonder what I would first be attracted to. I'd absolutely recommend Beautiful Midnight and Avalanche as starters.
  6. *excitement*
  7. I like it. First listen I wasn't overwhelmed, but the next few listens of songs like "Human of the Year", "Genius Next Door", and "The Calculation" helped let them sink in a little and now I'm a big fan of pretty much the whole album. I think it's solid up until maybe the last two songs, which are the least memorable.
  8. I'm pretty sure I used to have a really horrible Born to Kill bootleg from like, Germany or something. I have no idea where I got it and it's probably long gone.
  9. While We Were Hunting Rabbits Anybody know if this has been played live? Forgive me for not knowing ;)
  10. Oh I am the shit king in don't shit your pants. I played it 2 months ago and got all the achievements and now my guy wears a crown ;)
  11. ... ;)
  12. So we're about 2 to 2 and a half months away from a stream of the whole album on his site. I'm getting excited! Time is flying.
  13. Half-Life 1 is way better than 2 in my humble opinion. I'm pretty sure I've argued this earlier in the thread somewhere.
  14. Anthony "Sully" Sullivan, longtime infomercial pitchman and co-host of "Pitchmen" released the following statement on the passing of his dear friend and colleague:
  15. HI BILLY MAYS HERE WITH THE CALCULATOR! Dammit.
  16. I have felt horrible all day. I was a big fan of Mr. Mays and I loved his show with Anthony Sullivan "Pitchmen" ;) This is really tragic and nobody could have seen it coming.
  17. http://www.cnn.com/2009/SHOWBIZ/TV/06/28/m...eath/index.html I'm so upset. I loved Billy and his show Pitchmen. The world is ending. I'm convinced.
  18. Well the Druid was kind of lame, but I found being the Wearwolf to be beyond entertaining!
  19. I'm pretty sure there was a point where I played D2 after 2003 and the name of my character was Near-Fantastica. I liked being a Druid/Wolf and a Paladin. Never a big fan of straight-up magic users or the Barbarian. I like a balance.
  20. I didn't even noticed the whole BM theme. Oops.
