  1. a thing that bothered me about the movie is the absence of humor. I love Lynch's sense of humor and found it's missing there. But maybe I was just waiting for something else and didn't understand this movie.

  2. damn, this album was just what i wanted, a lot like tuss, which i think is his best stuff.

     

    also, am i the only one who thinks the bassline in circlont6a at 3:21 to 3:28 sounds almost EXACTLY like the bassline on the syro track from 4:27 to 4:34?.

    doesn't matter, they're both used in very different ways in their respected tracks, just interesting.

     

    yeah I also wondered about that at the beginning when I still didn't digest all the tracks and couldn't differentiate them all. I was thinking "wait didn't I hear that melody in another track already?". I love this reference actually. The two tracks are very different but it makes them sound like cousins or something.

  3.  

    I've only gotten into comics in the past few months by reading Alan Moore. I think he's fantastic but is he as good as they say he is?

    Anyway hopefully I'll be starting Fables soon after playing The Wolf Among Us.

     

    watchmen, swamp thing, from hell. all great.

    his stuff can sometimes misfire a bit. his more recent stuff is all heavy in ideas and generally strong and stylistic ... but can also be a bit bland ...

     

     

    V for Vendetta also has to be quoted imo. For me it was a grower. The Watchmen too actually, I was pretty young when I first tried to get into it. I don't know Swamp Thing, I should check it out i guess.

     

     

    oh and I didn't know that the last book of this trilogy of Charles Burns was out. I know what you mean about the wait between the books, I was kind of disappointed after reading the second one because although it's nice it's very short and doesn't brings the story a lot further. Would like to read the 3rd one though.

     

    at the moment I'm reading some Tardi. I'm not sure this kind of oldschool french comic have a lot of fans here (kind of focused on french culture and history in some way, I guess it's not that easy to export) but it's funny to read. The book i'm reading belongs to the series with Nestor Burma.

     

     

    "bonsoir ducon"

  4. Yeah Jimmy Corrigan is excellent, I found it pretty ugly at the first look but then I started to read and I was amazed to see how beautiful this story is. I want to read it again. I also have to read more Chris Ware, it's the only thing I know from him.

     

    Also, it's already been like two years now but I'm still very sad that Moebius died. He made the most cazy comic book stuff I know and kept it fresh the whole time (above 80 years old ; how much artists stay innovative so long?).

     

    Also I read my first book of Druillet a couple of months ago and it's pretty crazy. The drawings are just insane. Actually if you look at pictures from the guy he looks pretty crazy, I can completely imagine he's the one drawing those things.

     

    I've nothing else constructive to say. Ah yeah, thanks bitroast for those Nausicaa drawings, now I want to read it. I love Miyazaki. Sometimes I watch some stuff from him again and it makes me want to cry.

  5. I love the beat of this track, it's very deep and subtle and this side-chained noise adds a very tasty glue to it. I felt frustrated about the chords, I think it's because they remind me of a shitty gansta rap song but in the end I think it's just a weird association in my mind, not sure I've heard such a song before. So forget the thing about the chords. Great track.

     

    Interesting that you uploaded it in such a bad quality. It makes me wonder if all this sound palette wouldn't be even more characteristic with a more decent file compression, if you know what I mean. On a side not I'm very sad that I can't listen to this "old shit" because "this video is private".

  6. don't know about the book but I found the movie wonderful, one of the best thing I ever watched. It's very sober and slow but also strongly poetic. I heard about the story before to see it but I was totally surprised when I eventually did.
