Spilled Her Guts In Cursive.



hey there. sorry it took me so long to post, i was out with a cousin & some friends. we were celebrating Cinco De Mayo. :]

anywho!

i got to play Guitar Hero 2 for the first time today. i am terrible at it. i sort of got 'Woman' by Wolfmother down. :D that was cool. also got to watch most of 'Point Break' with Keanu Reeves & Patrick Swayze.


great movie. amazing fights and cool cop stuff, although, my buddy Bobby pointed out that 'Fast & the Furious' has the same plot of this flick. kinda lame. :/



but onto 'Seventeen Seconds'.

The first chapter in the Cure's 'Dark Trilogy', total time is 35:33.
i'm not too big a fan of this album, it's a staple to own if you want to be a true blue 'Cure Head'.

the album starts out slow with an instrumental track then blasts into hyperdrive with 'Play For Today', one of the albums two singles. once you get past the upbeatness(?) of 'Play For Today', it slows down to a nicer pace and carries it through the rest of the album. i prefer the album version of 'A Forest' over the single version, it's darker, perhaps even scarier, although the 'Tree Mix' on Mixed up is pretty spooky itself. :] i give this album a 6 out of 10 stars.
