What's Borat doing wearing a leather jacket?

I rank godspeeds albums in an odd order:
1) f# a#
2) yanqui U.X.O.
3) skinny fists
4) don't bend ascend

I can't get into them either, but for me it's mostly because of the synths. I didn't dislike them enough to remove them from my library though, so I kept them.

Isn't f# a# generally thought of as their best?
Can't say anything about the others though.

Yeah, mine would be the reverse of that, but I really like all of them except for f# a#. Just to test, where would you put the Slow Riot EP?

The more I learn about Jim Morrison, the more I think Pam let him die, rather than it being an unfortunate accident.

I personally found f# a# to be their finest work. I think it has to do with East Hastings being one of the finest pieces of post-rock i've ever heard.

She more or less admitted to this before she died. She also confessed more to someone (I think it was Ray Manzarek but don't quote me on that) but whoever she confessed to hasn't revealed what she told. Jim never did heroine before because he was deathly afraid of needles and had her inject him. His drug of choice was always alcohol.

Off topic but felt it could go here...

Rock Hall Of Fame, more or less a glorified pissing contest anymore and really, it means next to nothing. Some bands think it's important, but really, it isn't. Green Day, f*cking Green Day, got in but Nine Inch Nails, a band with far more credibility or merit, or a massive collective of material that is of such a higher quality of music, oozing with more originality and talent than anything Green Day has put out...Nine Inch Nails got the snub, losing out to Green Day. That really says something to me about the people behind the Rock Hall Of Fame, not to mention the people that vote...actually, Nine Inch Nails got a massive, and I do mean massive, more amount of votes than Green Day, something around 20 million to green days measly 3 million or so, something like that. My point with that last part is someone made sure Green Day got in, when their votes clearly did not show that they should have. I honestly don't know much about how the process works and how a band gets in, but that looks really damn sketchy to me.

F*ck you, Green Day. An unoriginal, bottom shelf wanna-be punk band. F*ck them. Nine Inch Nails should have gotten in, and f*ck whoever made sure Green Day did. Trent Reznor could crap in a toilet and it'd be made up of more than every bit of Green Day's material combined.

Yeah, I'm pissed. Because this only confirms more that the Rock Hall Of Fame is a damn joke. You guys see some of the other bands or artists on that list? There were easily four or so that were far more deserving, Green Day wasn't in any way whatsoever, not with album sales, nothing. Why the hell were they even a nominee aside from being around 25 years or more? Makes no sense at all.
