The Wrestler


"The Wrestler"

Love. Pain. Glory.

xxx



xxx

I love wrestling (since I was a little brat), Darren Aronofsky films and why not Mickey Rourke still rules. (Hey!, The Motorcycle boy reigns!)...so I needed to see this so badly (thanks bittorrent!).

(Release date in Spain: 20 February 2009)

The movie is freaking brilliant, pure emotions and great performances (by the way Marisa Tomei (45) is HOT! XD 'Nuff said).

A rude and crude story (as life often is) about an aging professional wrestler, decades past his prime, who now barely gets by working small wrestling shows in VFW halls and as a part-time grocery store employee. As he faces health problems that may end his wrestling career for good he attempts to come to terms with his life outside the ring: by working full time at the grocery store, trying to reconcile with the daughter he abandoned in childhood and forming a closer bond with a stripper he has romantic feelings for. He struggles with his new life and an offer of a high-profile rematch with his 1980s arch-nemesis, The Ayatollah, which may be his ticket back to stardom

Maybe Im not objective (as Wrestling/Aronofsky die hard fan) but you should definitely check this out.

PS: Bruce Springsteen - "The Wrestler" .





Two, three, four

Have you ever seen a one trick pony in the field so happy and free
If you've ever seen a one trick pony then you've seen me
Have you ever seen a one legged dog makin' his way down the street
If you've ever seen a one legged dog then you've seen me

(Then you've seen me) I come and stand at every door
(Then you've seen me) I always leave with less than I had before
(Then you've seen me) bet I can make you smile when the blood it hits the floor
Tell me friend can you ask for anything more
Tell me can you ask for anything more

Have you ever seen a scarecrow filled with nothing but dust and weeds
If you've ever seen that scarecrow then you've seen me
Have you ever seen a one armed man punchin' at nothing but the breeze
If you've ever seen a one armed man then you've seen me

(Then you've seen me) I come and stand at every door
(Then you've seen me) I always leave with less than I had before
(Then you've seen me) bet I can make you smile when the blood it hits the floor
Tell me friend can you ask for anything more
Tell me can you ask for anything more

These things that have comforted me I drive away (anything more)
This place that is my home I cannot stay (anything more)
My only faith is in the broken bones and bruises I display

Have you ever seen a one legged man tryin' to dance his way free
If you've ever seen a one legged man then you've seen me

Ryan Adams


Again, I am completely and totally obsessed with Ryan Adams stuff.

Some "fucktastic" videos.

xxx



Moving like the fog on the Cumberland River
I was leaving on the Delta Queen
And I wasn't ready to go
I'm never ready to go
27 of nothing but failures and promises that I couldn't keep
Oh lord, I wasn't ready to go
I'm never ready to go
Let it ride
Let it ride easy down the road
Let it ride
Let it take away all of the darkness
Let it ride
Let it rock me in the arms of stranger's angels until it brings me home
Let it ride
Let it roll
Let it go

Loaded like a sailor
Tumbling off a ferry boat
I was at the bar till three
Oh Lord, and I wasn't ready to go
I'm never ready to go
Tennessee's a brother to my sister Carolina where they're gonna bury me
And I ain't ready to go
I'm never ready to go
Let it ride let it ride easy down the road
Let it ride
Let it take away all of this darkness
Let it ride
Let it rock me in the arms of stranger's angels until it brings me home
Let it ride
Let it roll
Let it go

I wanna see you tonight
Dancing in the endless moonlight
In the parking lot in the headlights of cars
Someplace on the moon
Where they moved the drive-in theater
Where I left the car that I can't find but I still got the keys to
Let it ride
Let it ride easy down the road
Let it ride
Let it take away all of this darkness
Let it ride
Let it rock me in the arms of stranger's angels until it brings me home
Let it ride
Let it roll
Let it go


Beautiful one.
(Neal Casal rocks too.)

Oh gal, oh gal, with your darkened eyes
Kindle the wood and prepare the lies
And don't fail me know
Oh me, oh my, oh beast with might
Drown me with water and burn me with fire
And don't fail me now
Just don't fail me now
You don't do me right
You don't do me right
Why you do me wrong when the rope gets tight?
When the rope gets tight
When the rope gets tight

Oh day, oh night, oh darkened light
Drown me with water and burn me with fire
And don't fail me know
Oh Mary, oh mother of all that is near
Lead me to freedom from my kingdom of fear
And don't fail me now
Just don't fail me now
You don't do me right
You don't do me right
Why you do me wrong when the rope gets tight?
When the rope gets tight
When the rope gets tight
When the rope gets tight

Oh gal, oh gal, with your darkened heart
Kindle the wood and prepare to start
Just don't fail me now
Just don't fail me now
You don't do me right
You don't do me right
Why you do me wrong when the rope gets tight?
When the rope gets tight
When the rope gets tight
When the rope gets tight
When the rope gets tight

The King of Kong


A middle-school science teacher and a hot sauce mogul vie for the Guinness World Record on the arcade classic, Donkey Kong. Steve and Billy engaged in a cross-country duel to see who could set the high score and become The King of Kong. Along the way, both men learned valuable lessons about what it means to be a father, a husband, and a true champion discovering that you dont always need to win to be a winner.

Altar

http://www.sunnborisaltar.com/

I don't know why, I just can´t stop listening to it...

xxx



The “Altar” album is NOT a split album. “Altar” is a collaboration album between sunn 0))) and boris that is a result of both bands conceptualizing, writing and recording the album together as one entity. Both groups have stepped outside their previous sounds and created a wholly unique album that stands on its own unique ground. There are elements of each groups trademark sound within the album but true to each groups progressive and experimental aspects, “Altar” moves into a completely new dimension.

American hardcore


Article of faith
n. pl. articles of faith
A very basic belief not to be doubted.

"Articles of faith" are probably my favorite (old school) hardcore band ever.
Music to spread the world (and spread the word).

Some vids:




Bad Attitude

Bad attitude's a catch-all phrase
When things don't work out their way
And you know you're supposed to stay
Right in your place

In your corner -- be a man
Get away with what you can
As long as you don't rip them
Keep you in your place

You know that it's not right to hate
It must be that you're born that way
You need some more -- indoctrinate
Or else they'll put you away

Bad attitude's what they'll serve you
When they're need for you is through
'Cause you got that attitude
Keep you in your place

Bad attitude's what it must be
Because you don't think like me
And want all those handsome things
Keep you in your place

Bad attitude's what I've been told
Since I was just five years old
And didn't buy what they had sold
Right in my place

Bad attitude but "be yourself"
Just enough like someone else
Another soul who needs our help
Go to hell

Bad attitude...

Everyday


Everyday's like another
everyway's the same old color
black and grey
it's just the weather
I don't feel so bad always

Everyday's like another
in everyway
will I recover
what's my name
what's my number
I don't feel so bad always

Everyday's like another
Yesterday's like tomorrow
Destitute pocket's empty
I declare emotional bankrupcy

Here is the album, It speaks for itself:

"Articles of faith - What we want is free"
