It is that time of the year again, Lollapalooza beacons me! I’m stoked for The Killers, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, TV On The Radio, Arctic Monkeys, Dan Deacon, Passion Pit and oh yeah, who’s that other group?
Oh that’s right, motherfucking Depeche Mode!
I’m so excited I might shit. I should pack extra shorts.
Sorry for that unneeded comment. Long time visitors of this site know that my blog kind of shuts down for Lollapalooza, so don’t expect another update until the end of next week, since I’ll be busy writing about Lollapalooza. If you can’t wait for my amazing recap you can check out last year’s at Bullz-Eye.com to wet you appetite and you can follow me on Twitter that weekend, where I will occasionally be posting worthless comments. Yes, I know I’ve bashed Twitter, but it is a convenient way for me to take notes, I sure as hell am not going to take my laptop to that place. It’s certainly a better use for the site than what I’ve used it for in the past, which is to engage in meaningless Twitter fights with idiotic manic-depressing Trent Reznor stalkers who never go outside and find joy in the death of heart patients.
Long story. Anyways, enjoy the tunes. Sorry I haven’t gotten around to the second half of that Janet Jackson post, I will soon I promise.

I know very little about Die Krupps, and I only know slightly more about Nitzer Ebb. I do know that this song kicks ass though, makes me want to punch someone, which admittedly isn’t that difficult right now. These are from a 12” single.

I don’t know what “I’ll house you” means, but it sounds dirty, so I support it. I guess it makes sense, you can “rock” someone after all. I think we should start making other musical genres verbs. This weekend I plan will “electro” someone, then if anyone gives me grief about it I will “new wave” them. It’s the only way they’ll learn. They just better hope I don’t “tech-house” them, they might never walk again.
And on that retarded note wish me luck in my trip to Chicago. See you all next week.
I just saw DM in concert last Friday in Boston – best show ever. Dave Gahan still has the moves, looks, sex appeal and voice to match.
Did I say – best concert ever!Yeah baby. You can see my review on longhairedboy.blogspot.com
My appetite has been whetted.
I first came across Die Krupps when I picked up their CD "A Tribute to Metallica" in 1993. You may enjoy it – it contains some interesting industrial/electronic takes on Metallica's 80's through Black Album output.
Ah…back in '86-88, I'd dance my arse off to Die Krupps…a little "Control, I'm Here" gets me phucked everytime! Plus, I've been housed and now I'm heading ta heaven!
