Things I love, Part 2
Painkiller: RemasteredPainkiller: Remastered by Judas Priest
Buy new: £6.78 / Used from: £4.15
I've heard the reformation CD and it's pretty good, but this is better. In fact, it's one of the best records of all time.
Reservoir Dogs (2 Disc Special Edition) [1993]Reservoir Dogs (2 Disc Special Edition) [1993]
Buy used from: £3.45
Another slice of classic Tarantino. A near perfect low budget movie proving movie making relies on skill not money.
Hardware [1989]Hardware [1989]
Buy used from: £4.99
More cult low-budget movie excellence. One of the best non-hammer British Horrors you'll ever see.
Hellraiser [1987]Hellraiser [1987]
Buy used from: £0.01
As is this. Intelligent, ultra-violent and deeply unsettling.
Alive Or Just BreathingAlive Or Just Breathing by Killswitch Engage
Buy new: £8.78 / Used from: £3.50
Probably their best CD so far, just about better than '...Heartache' due to the advanced heaviness.
Girlfriend in a ComaGirlfriend in a Coma by Douglas Coupland
Buy used from: £0.10
Fantastic but deeply strange story about growing up and the apocalypse. I liked it a lot, some don't.
RabiesRabies by Skinny Puppy
Buy used from: £7.74
Intense political industrial with a serious bone to pick with the world. It's quite 80s and very, very dark so may not be for everyone, but I love it.
Fantastic DamageFantastic Damage by El-P
Buy used from: £5.44
Godlike genius. The perfect antidote to the ludicrous rap'n'b crossover that's going on in the mainstream. Pure hip hop with a wicked sound all of his own.
Naked Lunch (Harperperennial Classics)Naked Lunch (Harperperennial Classics) by William S. Burroughs
Buy used from: £1.39
Reading this book is actually like hallucinating. That's pretty high praise, and more or less what Burroughs was aiming for.
Versus [2000]Versus [2000]
Buy new: £14.69 / Used from: £5.93
Pure coolness on film. Like the Evil Dead genespliced with an uber-violent video game and monty python. So crazy, so endearingly silly, it simply must be watched. Now.
