Oops, I misread, I thought you were talking about We Built This City... I read "artist lowpoint" and assumed that's what you must be thinking of.

I love/hate/love the nasty DX7 bassline in that track. FM synth sounds are making such a big comeback... scary. Love how hypocritical the song is too, all the bad boy "rock will never die!" posturing over the most blatantly un-rock'n'roll music ever. Cracks me up.

Lupe Fiasco's Superstar is amazingly ace.

Yeah, trying to put as little rock music on this site as possible, hoping it'll force those who like rock to pull finger.

Thanks for the fix.

The Revolution Will Not Be Televised. Excellent primarily because it's using heaps and heaps of first-hand footage by the documentary makers who were in the palace at the time of the coup and contrasting it with what was seen on TV.

Don't watch it if you don't want to see people being shot in the head in the middle of a demonstration. Real blood's not much like action movie blood, eh?

Coolness.

Cunting thing still happening, happens every single time I post, whether it's a comment, new blog post, new wiki entry or updated wiki entry. Currently finding this to be the case using Firefox 2.0.0.11 under OS X 10.4.9.

Recently watched the excellent doco those two Irish guys did where they were in Hugo Chavez's palace at the time of the coup to oust him, this kind of rousing of "middle NZ" seems very similar to what the big business interests did there.

Be aware it's very much on the Italo disco kinda tip... probably far too many helpings of cheddar for some.

It's the web browser I'm using, plus operating system. Some websites don't work the same way under different browsers.

Also when I posted the above reply. Blank screen, go back, refresh page, logged out. Ah well.

Firefox 2.0.0.6 under XP.

Yeah, I get booted when I post a new topic. Also when I update something in the wiki.

Man, this vid for Awesome Feelings definitely does the trick. Had me laughing out loud on multiple occasions.

Turns out several years down the track these guys have just signed an album (compiling bits of the last two NZ releases) to DFA's label / EMI imprint. Weird world.
