What's the Deal With -Band X-?
Scandanavian War Machine:
the deal with Boris is that they somehow make drone NOT BORING which is something new to me and then after ten minutes of droning they proceed to rock the fuck out.
Jackie Blue:
The deal with Boris, other than that Pink utterly fucking destroys for combining shoegazer, psychedlia, metal, and punk, is that they are also proficient at changing up their style quite a bit (see their last two albums, Rainbow and Smile).

the brighteyes fire is burning strong! bring marshmallows and we'll light em on fire and see who can fling em furthest into the lake!
i hadn't caught the whole junkie thing or the rich kid business, in fact the only song i know well enough to cite is "at the bottom of everything" which is pretty great actually. Everything else i tried to listen to i managed to halfway in before i turned it off. However as far as rich kids with heavy drug addictions go, i find that argument to be a bit of a cop out, i mean look at william burroughs - he grew up with a trust fund which allowed him to travel, live by his whims, get out of the army with little more than a smirk and some babble of schizophrenia , got himself a crazy ass heroin addiction, then changed writing as we know it as well as kicked off the beat movement by taking ginsberg and keroac under his wing. I'm not saying i like everything he wrote or in fact much more than his first few novels, but that being a rich junkie desperate for attention is not enough ground to dismiss someone, if their art sucks it just sucks.
Johnny C:
Plus, this.
