1) This should be in musical, or comic discussions

2) Actually he's referencing the band that was at one point "The Unicorns"

In fact, it is not the same as The Unicorns. It happens to share two members from what used to be the Unicorns (now only one member as the drummer quit), but is an entirely separate band.

It's also an album by King Crimson.

A much better than those two albums.


This is based upon only knowledge of the King Crimson album being fucking awesome.

but the music sucks because the keyboards don't have the cold/mechanical sound they had but a wannabe techno sound that it's pathetic for Rammstein standars.

"at one point"

Heh, I saw them live opening for Metric.  The Violinist is so much fun to watch it's uncanny.  The whole tiem through "Rough Gem" he was bouncing around stage.

to be technical, "at one point" does not express the same idea :-)

however, the violinist is pretty awesome (both of them are actually)
and the bassist seems really laid back like he's having lots of fun

DIG DEEP BUT DON'T DIG TOO DEEP
WHEN IT'S LATE YOU'LL SEE THE HOLE IS EMPTY
AND OH SO DEADLY

"Rough Gem" is currently my favourite contender for Best Song Of 2006.

I wouldn't go that far, but it is my favorite on the album certainly :-)

My favorite of the year so far is Beirut - Postcards from Italy

I got Alex Chow (the violinist) to sign my copy of the CD. Even he doesn't really appear on it, which isn't cool at all.

I'll forever remember those two bouncing around stage with mile wide grins on their faces.

That was a great concert.
