Gome of the Week
What else could the Blazers do (again)? How about laying off a third of the people that work for them?
Sure, why the hell not. Paul Allen, you wealthy, greasy, sci-fi loving virgin, you've done it again.
Bust A Bucket!
This Week's Link That's Probably Not That Great
TK-421 - Everything you'd want to know about the only Storm Trooper with a name.
This Week's Movie You've Probably Never Seen
Star Crash (1978)
Star Crash.
Robots, magic, things that look like light sabers? Sound familiar?
What makes this Star Wars rip-off great is the afro attached to the main character and the late arrival of a young David Hasselhoff.
The scantily clad Stella Star doesn't hurt either.
Love Biff.
This Week's Record You're Probably Not Listening To
Fudge Tunnel - Hate Songs in E Minor (1992)
It doesn't get much heavier and crunchier than this. Ah, the Tunnel. I bought this album in high school just because I thought they had a cool name and Spin gave them a good review. Apparently that sealed the deal. It turned out that it kicks some ass.
Includes the hits "Gut Rot," "Tweezers," and their covers of "Cat Scratch Fever" and "Sunshine of Your Love."
From the inside sleeve- "none of the lyrics on this record mean anything, so don't waste your time."
Refreshing.
