He's tweeting gleefully that "someone told him" that a dude in Bon Iver (I just thought that was one dude making sad bastard music!) was wearing a Liturgy shirt on SNL, so he's STILL talking about them daily and simultaneously too cool to watch SNL, toolbaggery!
That was actually Colin Stetson who has some really cool solo stuff but has a habit of playing saxophone for shitty pitchfork-friendly bands. At this point Liturgy is like the Twilight books for me, I'm just waiting for people to stop talking about them. And now I'm talking about it. Fuck it.
I had heard of Liturgy, but I don't think I'd ever listened to them. People are really into this stuff eh? Repetative and the vocals are all the same girlish scream. Missing something…very spare, and not in a good way. This is black metal now? Good thing I'm not a big black metal guy. I hope the two people I know that like black metal are not listening to this tomfoolery.
Deafheaven on the other hand I like a lot, but I had their demo from a couple years back. I was right on the leading edge for that one. I was hip.
Repellent ninjas. The downfall of the old GI Joe comic in the early 90s was ninjafication. Ninjas were always present, but eventually everybody became a ninja and every issue was about ninjas. By 1994, it was all over. Ninjas were broke, homeless, drug addicted. Outreach programs were able to help a few. God willing, they'll keep on the straight and narrow.

Larry Hama was a brilliant and talented man who threw it all away for his ninja addidction.

As a devout follower of all things GI Joe (except for that pile of crap movie), I have to say that I agree with all of this. I think if he would have kept it just Smake Eyes, Storm Shadow and Firefly, it would have been much better. So yeah, the ninja overload was a bit much.
My favorite Metallica song is Ace of Spades off of Vulgur Display of Power.
Even Firefly was pushing it. I liked him better as a crafty saboteur.
The fact that everybody is referring to this guy from Liturgy as "HHH" kind of rubs me the wrong way. We all know who the real HHH is. Although lately I've been a TNA man, and he was never one of my favorite guys, I have to respect him.
It's kind of like people calling LaDainian Tomlinson "LT". It's easy, it's natural, it ain't wrong. I love LT. But the real "LT" Lawrence Taylor is out there, and he's still dangerous. Especially if you're an underage prostitute. As far as "HHH" fighting somebody at a Liturgy show, the real Triple H should be called down there to regulate. Although it would probably only happen if Liturgy played a show with Fozzy. Man would that be torture.
