This IS counterculture.

Mon, 22 Nov 2004 22:36:56 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Fragile - Having only been listening to KMFDM for about the past year and a half, though I've been in the industrial 'scene' for 10 odd years, I've grown into this insatiable fan. It's disgusting. I hate myself. But I can't stop listening. Especially to this...

No comprende? I'm going to Burger King.

Mon, 22 Nov 2004 22:06:01 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Fragile - Never being a huge fan of the 'real food' McDonald's dishes out to it's patrons, I do admit that I love their ice cream. It's definitely no Cold Stone, but I like it because it tastes good, and it's relatively low in fat and calories. This being said,...

So many reasons to remain

Thu, 25 Dec 2003 23:42:06 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Fragile - Untited States of Mind is a release by Covenant prior to "Northern Light" so I'm reviewing in the wrong order; however this is not an album to be missed. With each release Covenant puts out, the sound is different, but still...

Pure Death-House.

Thu, 29 May 2003 17:01:03 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Fragile - Each release Covenant has done has never failed to impress me. Though put in the "industrial" genre, they have a sound that definitely makes them stand out from the rest of the typical "EBM" crowd.

Throughout their releases, their sound has...

Joop! is "YOOP"

Sun, 20 Apr 2003 14:41:57 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Fragile - A few years ago, I had a flame that would always wear a certain cologne, and the scent of it drove me wild. I would ask him what it was and he would refuse to tell me.

After our relationship ended, I would still run into the same scent...

Lapsed vegetarian, and damn proud...

Sun, 20 Apr 2003 13:47:56 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Fragile - So I decided yesterday, after being a vegetarian (with some time practicing veganism), that I really missed seafood. Badly. I used to eat prawns, scallops, crab, clams... you name it; I was a huge seafood fan.

Then I cut out chicken, fish, and every...

Fear dot BOMB

Thu, 6 Mar 2003 15:13:47 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author Fragile - I like to consider myself a connoisseur of horror films. When Fear Dot Com first came out, what, last year? I was really excited to go see it; I didn't see it in the theatres, though (thank god, at least I didn't waste $8). I actually just saw it last...

Raising the Bar?

Tue, 4 Mar 2003 03:47:07 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Fragile - Before the big dip in the economy, the Capitol Hill district of Seattle was a busy, colorful, and thriving little neighborhood; lots of unusual stores to discover, good for people-watching, and, best of all, numerous food choices.

Surprisingly,...

Hallelujah!

Tue, 29 Oct 2002 07:28:13 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Fragile - Oh, my Lord (;]), how do I even begin to describe how this album makes me feel?

If you know me at all, it's a well-known fact that I'm a huge fan of Nick Cave and have been for around 10 years now. I caught up with him a little late, around the era...

OTC Speed.

Tue, 29 Oct 2002 06:52:33 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author Fragile - First of all, I'm surprised this crap is legal. As of this year, about 150 people (give or take) have died from using products containing ephedrine (also known as ephedra, or Ma-Huang). Ephedrine, a plant-based stimulant, is typically found in OTC...

Quality Energy Without the Sugar Crash.

Mon, 14 Oct 2002 14:26:32 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Fragile - These days, everyone is running around, too busy to sit down, and have a healthy, relaxed meal.

That, or there's the extreme athletes that just keep on running and running and going and going.

And there are also some people who happen to be...

Decaf? No Problem!

Mon, 14 Oct 2002 14:06:59 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Fragile - Let me start off by saying that if I consume any caffeine, it's bad news. Both for me and whomever I'm around. I believe I'm one of the very few out there who loves the taste of coffee, yet can't handle the wonderful (but off-limits) stimulant caffeine...

Forgrossa

Wed, 9 Oct 2002 12:53:08 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author Fragile - Supposedly, Formosa's some kind of landmark in Los Angeles.. you walk in, get carded, and through the darkness find a table to sit at. Once your eyes adjust to the too-dim lighting, you notice pictures of old movie stars all over the red walls (isn't...

Make Up Your Mind!

Mon, 7 Oct 2002 21:07:25 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Fragile - For those of us who are fans of Swayzak's earlier releases ("Snowboarding in Argentina", etc), listening to this CD was/will be quite a surprise.

No longer do we hear the dirty, gritty synths and heavy bass lines. No longer does it sound...

Fast, Friendly, and CHEAP!

Fri, 27 Sep 2002 20:04:37 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Fragile - In the past, I've usually stuck with America West airlines. Every time I've flown with them, it's been one problem after another; they've lost my luggage, made me miss a connecting flight because there was a huge delay for some mysterious reason, the...

B*tchin'...too literally.

Sat, 21 Sep 2002 05:35:48 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author Fragile - I try to avoid going to Bimbos.

This doesn't usually work in my favor, as I have friends who swear that they have the best mexican food on Capitol Hill.

Really, I can't argue with them there- it's (for the most part) healthy, very...

Run, Lola, Run!

Fri, 17 May 2002 14:28:51 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Fragile - This review should be mostly about the music, but just a quick review for those who haven't seen this incredible film:

Manni, who is Lola's boyfriend, is in some big, big trouble. He's supposed to deliver a large amount of cash to his 'boss'...

Another Plus for Deutschland!

Sun, 17 Mar 2002 17:33:43 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Fragile - Winterkaelte's latest (well, it was released in 1999) release since their first CD, "Structures of Destruction" absolutely blew the industrial/noise scene into a beautiful fit.

Showing that a 6-song epic CD can kick your a**, the duo from Germany...

How Downhill Can You Go?

Sat, 16 Mar 2002 14:28:21 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Fragile - I used to go out to the Olive Garden all the time- at least twice a month. The service was top-notch and professional, the food was delicious, and the atmosphere was very relaxing; perfect for a romantic dinner or a night out with friends.

But...

The Perfect Car...

Tue, 11 Jul 2000 09:31:58 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Fragile - The Ford Escort ZX2 Sport is one of the best cars that Ford has put out in a long time. Who new that an Escort (I mean, look at the '83 models!) could even be considered "sporty"?

It has everything you can ask for- great sound system (the...

Yahoo! Chat: Get Propositioned!

Tue, 29 Feb 2000 22:26:05 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author Fragile - I've never been much of a fan of chat rooms. I've been frequenting Go.com's Gothic Cathedral for quite some time, but every other chat room I go into is lame with a capital "L".

Especially Yahoo.

First of all, you can't go into any of...

At Eternity

Mon, 31 Jan 2000 11:24:47 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Fragile - Nick Cave is, has, and always will be my god.

His music is amazingly timeless; it never has and never will fit in with any particular genre.

From Her To Eternity, Nick Cave and the Bad Seed's first release (alas, no more Birthday Party), proves...

Sonic Foundry Acid Pro: Um...cough cough

Sat, 15 Jan 2000 15:00:20 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Fragile - When I first started making music on the computer, about 7 years ago, I started out with some basic pathetic MIDI program. Oh, how that sucked...Then I dropped it all, and just played the piano. A few more years later down the road, I discovered just how...

New Noise!

Mon, 27 Dec 1999 05:03:28 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Fragile - I'm hardly what one would call a punk...and although I have everything to owe Nick Cave, and although I grew up listening to the Birthday Party.. it's noisy. I like NOISE. bangcrashboom stuff.

However.

Refused is a hardcore punk band that I...

Total Choice: Direct Garbage

Thu, 4 Nov 1999 10:06:30 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author Fragile - What, may I ask, am I paying $20 for? Yay, maybe MTV (Much Tasteless Viewing) or M2 (which actually plays the Cure of the Sisters...), but the negatives far more outweigh the good stuff.

First of all, no local news. Not that I really care what's...
