Fucking Vinyl rules !! I..m not stuck on a particular musical style. I enjoy music that touches a vibe, or simply blasts my ears off. It can be elaborated or pretty simple, if some kind of energy, or magic is there, and I like crazy stage shows. Musical styles I enjoy include Garagepunk, 77 Punk, Old school HC, Rock n..Roll (50ties or modern), some Elektronica if it catches a Punk spirit, some Psychobilly, some Stonerrock, some Grindcore. I don..t listen to Metal/Hardrock these days any more, which i liked very much as a Teenager (nowadays they call it "Glam"), but i still consider extreme acts such as Slayer, Hellhammer or the old Celtic Frost as fucking cool, or putting on an old Twisted Sister record at a party is fun too. Music thats too complaisant, too "pop" or too "college radio" is not my thing. I like listening to radio ghoul school for some deathrock or darker tunes.

I like films that touch a nerve or getting through with wild imagery which are mostly Horror, Exploitation, Trash or Arthouse flics. Either they should be emotionally disturbing or coming up with some unusual vision that can keep my attention. Some of them can be so bad, that they make me laugh out of pity; intended comedy is sort of rough with me, so I prefer the camp-attitude. Such films are:
* The Cramps-live at Napa State Hospital
* Psycho
* The Sore Losers
* Hated
* Street Trash
* Videodrome
* Plan 9 from outer space
* the texas chainsaw massacre
* House of 1000 Corpses
* Richard Kern Films
* The Thing from another World
* House of Frankenstein
* El Topo
* David Lynch
* Russ Meyer..s Faster Pussycat kill kill
* Return of the Living Dead
* Just for the Hell of it
* Weekend
* The Doom Generation
* Starship Troopers
* Cabin Fever
* bizarre Documentaries
* Subconscious Cruelty
For me television nowadays is a waste of time. Most TV productions deliver to the most basic forms of entertainment and are generally a piece of crap, being just a proliferation tool for product placement or commercials. There are some exceptions, that I could mention:
* twin peaks
* the munsters
* late night shows presented by elvira/vampira characters
* weirdo documentaries
* u 3000
* eurotrash
* masters of horror
Time is limited nowadays, so the endless ramblings of overlong novels are passé. I can..t spend a couple of days reading to have the Ullysses Experience. So I like a clear vision in compact format, such as poetry or song lyrics where you got an essence of expression.
