What is this shit


Added by natetodamax on Nov. 10, 2009

So, Them Crooked Vultures. The one band reminding us that good rock 'n' roll still exists. None of that sappy emo or hardcore grunge crap that makes you want to break stuff (for the record, I had a passion for grunge for a while). Them Crooked Vultures is the band.
 
For anyone that doesn't know, TVC is a supergroup consisting of John Paul Jones from Led Zeppelin, Dave Grohl from Foo Fighters, and Josh Homme from Queens Of The Stone Age. They are the rock and roll band. Seriously. Their first album is due out on November 17th, and comes out one day before in the UK. The album is self titled and will contain the best damn music you've ever heard. The band's Youtube account ( click here!) recently uploaded the entire album onto the site so you can listen to it. Below is probably my favorite song on the album, and is also the first song on it:
 
 
  
Honestly, this is probably the greatest song I've ever heard. So a catchy tune, and the way the song completely changes at 2:44 is outstanding. The rest of the album is also fantastic. Why? Because it's fucking rock music, and it's amazing.
 
Now, the purpose of this blog is to get people interested in this band, and to convince them that rock still exists on this planet. This is not meant to be advertising. Just spreadin' the word.
Related to: Dave Grohl, Josh Homme

I've played a lot of terrible games this year, but the one I think I should mention is Call Of Duty: World At War. That game is just awful. I don't feel the need to describe it in detail.

Only The Insane Would Avoid This Game (X360)
Nobody really expects a game based around a comic book character to be very good. Multiple games in the past have tried to pull off this feat, but none have come anywhere close to Batman: Arkham Asylum. This game utterly surprised me. After playing the demo, I was hooked. Everything ...

It's Left 4 Dead, Not Much Else (Crash Course review) (X360)
So Crash Course basically took me by surprise. I learned about it's release date the day before it came out. By chance I still had 640 Microsoft Points left, so I picked it up the next day. Crash Course really does nothing different, and is simply more Left 4 Dead, ...

Multiplayer Fans Need To Avoid This One (Map Pack 3 Review) (X360)
I was very excited about Map Pack 3, but unfortunately, the new multiplayer maps are so weak that it's not worth the 800 points unless you're a Nazi Zombies fan. The new maps are way to large and confusing. Treyarch said the fans wanted big maps. They said the fans ...

Quite Possibly The Greatest Game Ever (PC)
Big Rigs: Over The Road Racing is quite possibly the greatest video game ever created.

Conceptually neat, but overall falls flat on its face (X360)
In most first person games out there, you carry a gun, and with that gun, you shoot dudes up and complete objectives. Swedish developer EA Digital Illusions CE (DICE) decided to take that formula and throw it right out the window. Mirror's Edge is a first person game, but the ...

Words Cannot Describe How Amazing Fallout 3 Is (X360)
