Diminished 7

I'm not really into L.A. bands, because most of them nowadays are either too emo or too metalcore-which I dislike both...or they're just not authentic enough for me. But Alex Crescioni sure does know how to bring Scandinavia to L.A! I am HIGHLY impressed with his band Diminished 7, which I think everyone should take a time out in your day and listen to this band! Diminished 7 is a gothic rock band from....Hollywood, surprisingly with REAL gothic influences, not...I'm not even gonna go there, but anyways..They're album "Dim World" is SO good, and they are in the process of coming out with a new album this year, which they have already released a new single and video entitled, "Queen in Nuclear Rain". My two favorite genres of metal is Sleaze Metal and Gothic Metal, and I just cannot believe I found a real gothic rock band from L.A! This feels almost strange that I'm not into a band from Europe...never thought a band so good, could be so local. Keep it dark, boys!




GREAT album


The beautiful Alex Crescioni


SUPPORT, SUPPORT, SUPPORT!!

Black Circle Boys

I love independent films. They usually come from small budgets, have almost new or underground actors, and have a very simple story lines-sometimes confusing, sometimes more raw than an original movie. Recently I watched a film called, "Black Circle Boys", which was a Sundance Independent Film in 1997. It's about an all-American guy name Kyle who's family moves into a new town after the death of his friend. He makes only one new friend, but ends up becoming apart of this satanic goth/metalhead gang, where they harm others and do drugs and eventually end up killing people. It's a pretty dark film. And the ending is kind of strange. But all-in-all I really enjoyed this movie. I even was in tears when Shane Carver( the leader of the gang-really cold and evil) kills Rory-it was so mean! This movie is definitely a unique piece to any independent/b-movie fan-would so recommend buying it.
