a few years back, Brooklyn's Pilot To Gunner played here in Portland at a hot little club called Dante's, and i missed it for some stupid reason.
they went on "hiatus" shortly thereafter and my pants still have yet to recover from me kicking myself in them.
fucking pants.
anyway.
taking a cue from mid-nineties post-punk a la Jawbox these guys do some serious pant kicking of their own. currently, all signs point to them working on finishing a new album, maybe some touring.
hell if i know.
go pick up some of their old stuff in preparation for their proud return, i say: "Hit The Ground & Hum (1999)", "Games At High Speeds (2000, re-released in 2003)", and "Get Saved (2004)".

visual:
"Ravenous (1999)"
Guy Pearce. Robert Carlyle. Jeremy Davies.
in featuring three of my favorite male actors all in one beautifully disgusting dark tale based on the Native American myth of the Wendigo, this flick will always hold a special place at the top of my list of the horror greats.
i recommend you try it medium rare.

"I am not for bush, but nor Clinton nor Obama can just pull out of a war, you'd end up going back, the Military Provides jobs. and if theres no war, more people loose their jobs."
so we're in Iraq to save jobs now? interesting idea.. you fucking moron.
