Saw Castle in the Sky for the first time today [I got the 2010 DVD version] {it was one of my birthday gifts}, and I've got to say: this Studio Ghibli/Disney movie was amazing, and the soundtrack is, too.
They're both very good songs with meaningful lyrics. Just try them out!
“The revolution is not an apple that falls when it is ripe. You have to make it fall.” - "Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them."
@JamieO I'm with you on Repeater. Not only is it simply awesome, but I have so many good memories tied to it. Putting it on whenever I'm in a funk picks me right up. I wish your punk thread (I'm almost positive it was yours) hadn't gotten buried, as there were some classics put up by several different members. It seems to be further back than page 10, so I fear it's lost for good .
"The government of the United States is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion."
@TheFox Yep mate, that old punk thread was started by me, I am chuffed that you fondly remember it.
The thing that you may not realise is... I am a full-on nostalgia geek. I live my whole life in the past! Whether or not it is playing Ninja Warriors Again on Super Famicom, reading my original copies of Super Play mag, pogoing to Descendents, or dreamin' about old school, chunky skateboards (one foot ollies rule)!
I am also studying to be a librarian. It is pretty much going to be my job to not only organise information, so that it can easily be retrieved, but also to keep records and archive anything that's becoming obsolete. Therefore, I had the thread's url stashed away, just in case anyone wanted to return to it...
... and you did it, mate. You are like Zeus calling out to the thread saying, "Wise from your gwave"! Except the thread don't have no muscles and only turns into a werewolf if you post The Misfits, or a specific Sicko cover on it. lol.
If I knew how to change my thread's name, I would change it to NLife Punkers and Alternative Rockers Thread as Resurrected by The Fox! That title may be too long though. lol. Nice one, mate.
I am passionate about retro gaming, from antiquated consoles to the continuation of classics. Obviously I love PSone, and PS2 retro games. I blast my ears to breakneck melodic punk, gruff vocals and nimble alternative guitar hooks.
@JamieO: Well done, my man! I doubt anyone would have been able to power through and find it but I'm glad to see you held onto it. Oh, and +25 geek points for the Altered Beast reference!
@RWP: I'm sure you'll get it out of your head....until Greenday Rockband hits and it gets stuck up there once again.

I'm glad someone else has been exposed to Joe Hisaishi/Studio Ghibli's work. Joe Hisaishi is one of my favorite composers, and I love all of Studio Ghibli's films. I just bought a collection of 18 movies by Hayao Miyazaki, actually.
I bought 3 albums recently, Kid A by Radiohead, Rings Around the World by Super Furry Animals and Icky Thump by The White Stripes. All 3 are quality albums. Super Furry Animals especially are almost like the Pink Floyd of the 90s/noughties, I highly reccomend giving them a listen. [youtube:JrnJ0gklStU] after the above videos I thought a song about religious fanaticism would be fun - [youtube:mcog70xgyAw] really nice mellow song... although there's a reason it's called 300mph. - [youtube:VrpGhEVyrk0] one of my faves from kid a
Buy the new The National album, High Violet. They're a fantastic band from New York...a little like Coldplay...except darker and with Johnny Cash as the lead singer. At any rate, it's one of the best albums of the year.

LCD Soundsystem's latest is...well, it's fantastic to be quite honest.
Thanks for reminding me that's out already, I thought it was coming out in June or something! I'm giving it a listen right now. I also bought Sonic Youth's Daydream Nation last night, cool album, it's kinda unfocused, complex punk rock.
