I Saw Your Mommy



Possessed to Skate

OMG! Tankard videos! OMG!

Dude:

I cannot believe these exist. These bring back memories:

Empty Tankard (Live)


The Morning After

Dio: Holy Diver

The title track from Holy Diver:

Dio: Rainbow in the Dark

The first heavy metal/ rock I ever owned was given to me by my sister: Dio's Holy Diver.

JC Superstar: King Herod's Song

This is the most fabulous song from the album...

Europe: The Final Countdown (live)

When I arrived in Germany, this is the song that my host brother played as he drove me from the airport to my new home.

Laibach: Sympathy for the Devil

One of Laibach's best remakes. Love the gothic voice...

Laibach: Geburt Einer Nation

This was the third CD I ever owned. I've heard this track literally thousands of times. I still love it.

Dr. Dre w/ Eminem: Forgot About Dre (Live Seattle)

Eminem: 8 Mile Final MC Battle

The final MC battle from the film:

Eminem: 8 Mile "Living in a Trailer"

One of the best parts of the film...

Dr. Dre w/ Eminem: Forgot About Dre

I've playing this song a lot lately.

Henry Rollins: Liar

Probably one of his best tracks...

Die Toten Hosen: Hier Kommt Alex

This is the only record of theirs that I actually got when I was in Germany. It was the extended play EP. I played it over and over and over again. Angst. Do you see a theme?

Studio Video:


Live:

The Best Three Bohse Onkels Songs





Shonen Kinfie: Buddha's Face

Dieter & I saw Shonen Knife in Eugene in 1994 or 1995. It was an amazing show.

Philip Boa and the Voodoo Club: Burn All the Flags

A much more recent track and video from Mr. Boa.

Philip Boa and the Voodoo Club: Kill Your Ideals

Yet another track from angsty 19s. I am still in awe that all these tracks and memories are online. It is stunning. It's like all of those times and their products exist now.

June 07
Unfortunately, this video was removed from YouTube. Sadness.

Kurd-Kurd-Kurdistan: Political Hip Hop

Interesting blend of hip-hop lyrics largely in German about
Kurdistan with lots of PKK-related images. This is quite an
interesting cultural blend.

Again, this blew my mind. It's the German rapper Fler with the track "Neue Deutsche Welle" set to Falco's "Amadeus" back beat.

Incredible.

I need to get into media crit.

DAF: Der Sheriff (VNV Nation)

Another DAF video; this is not live but filmed.

Cro-Mags: World Peace (new edit)

I liked the Cro-Mags when I was 18 and alienated in Frankfurt, Germany. This track was one of my theme songs. Someone has taken the song and created new visuals. It makes for an interesting analysis.

DAF: Mussolini

I can't believe I found this video. I used to love DAF.
