I love Rasputina.  Have done for years.  I still consider myself lucky for finding out about their gig in Leeds last year too, even if it were a support slot for about 40 minutes.  It still meant that my best friend and I after waiting *years* finally got to see them.  We have also always said we were going to learn to play cello too but never have hah.

The only merch I bought at the gig.

I’ve been watching a lot of RuPaul’s Drag Race as of late.  Initially I only started watching it for make up tips but in honesty I’ve learnt a lot more.  RuPaul comes across as a very strong role model for positivity and lets face it we all need to embrace more PMA in our lives.  Anyway this song is catchy as hell and has became a bit of a gym favourite.

I love this song. Dita as usual is flawless.

I swear this song has been stuck in my head for at least a week now.  Siouxsie & The Banshees has a habit of doing that to me.  Total earworms.  It totally reminds me of this illustration that was doing the pinterest/tumblr rounds not that long back too.  Happy Monday everyone.

As if Chi from the Deftones wasn’t enough now Jeff Hanneman from Slayer has passed on (probably burning in Hell much to his delight, considering the bands disdain of the other guy). I must admit I’m not a huge Slayer fan.  I like them but I’m not obsessed by them.  I’m certainly not going to slate their work ethic, not at all because after Nine Inch Nails (who I fucking love and whom I’ve travelled hundreds of miles at every opportunity I could to see them) they are the only band who I can say I’ve seen more times than hot dinners, purely down to coincidence.

The Neurosis & Jarboe album is awesome.

The rest of the weeks ear candy:

• Danzig – Deth Red Sabaoth
• Rasputina – Sister Kinderhook
• Body Count – Violent Demise – the Last Days
• Kingdom of Sorrow – Behind The Blackest Tears
