    Got Angst?

    posted @ 7/14/2008 08:00:00 AM by Ninjasistah
    It's hard to explain the title until you listen to the episode, but trust me this new episode of the ESH podcast is quite the piece of work.

    In this episode of the podcast, the sistah's run the video game, entertainment and anime gauntlet from the audience choice re-review of the anime series Angel Sanctuary to new games on the E3 horizon. Would it be an ESH podcast if we didn't talk about incest, angst, mentioning Bioshock or complaining about videogames/comic titles being turning into feature length films? I don't think so. To give you a better idea of how the episode turned out, here are the titles we didn't choose:

    • Sucked Into a Portal of Happiness
    • God Knows, Even In His Sleep
    • Again With the Incest
    • I Love Her, So I Need to Kill Her
    • The Sex Scenes Are Pretty Cool, Just Pretend They're Not Related
    • Just Say "No" to Will Smith
    • Want to Beat Darth Vader? Smack James Earl Jones in the Face
    • It's Big. It's Black. and It Makes No Noise
    • My Only Real Complaint Is that It's Short
    • I Finally Took Out Ghandhi - I'm Not Proud to Say That
    • and
    • FYI: Incest Sends Your Soul to Hell

    So grab your morning or evening cup of joe and enjoy ESH Podcast Episode 105: This Is Fan Service...WITHOUT My Crotch

    A Rant from KBD: Gwen Stefani Pisses Me Off!

    posted @ 3/20/2008 04:30:00 PM by FreeLoader
    I've posted this in another forum, but I felt that my brothers and sistahs here can vent about this, too.

    Gwen Stefani is a Tomoko Kawase wannabe. That's right, I said it.

    Like Tomoko, Gwen was the lead vocalist of a successful rock band (Tomoko with the brilliant green, Gwen with No Doubt). They then both went for a more poppy solo career (with Tomoko donning the aliases Tommy february6 & Tommy heavenly6). Both had found success, but only one managed to get the job done right; and that's Tomoko.

    The reason why it works better with Tomoko is because when she does her new thing, she doesn't leave her brilliant green fans in the dust. Her music mixes '80's European-styled pop with the indie rock that made her famous. And because of that mix she creates an original sound that captures the personality of her stage characters. She may not be the bad girl that she portrays on stage in real life, but at least people know it's just a character.

    Gwen, on the other hand, just does pop for the sake of pop; and because of that she sounds like every other American pop singer. And whoever told her to remix "The Lonely Goatherd" into her song should never be allowed to work in the music business ever again!!! Also, notice that those Harujuku Girls that surround her are Japanese; and wearing what seems to be cloned clothes that not only Tomoko wears, but also other J-POP singers like Ayumi Hamasaki, Bonnie Pink, and Puffy. She's blatantly ripping off J-POP!!!

    Gwen, I'm sorry; but you'll never be a J-POP singer. You're just a white girl from California who grew up listening to early grunge and punk. I read that you are working on a new No Doubt album. That's good. Go back to doing what you know best: rockin' out! Then we will forgive you for this little pop experiment of yours.What I'm trying to say here is leave the J-POP sound to the J-POP singers. American musicians can learn from them; but just copying their style and foregoing their own will just lead to disaster.

    This is King Baby Duck saying "If it ain't made in Japan, it's usually crap!"
