Guinea Pig Flower of Flesh and Blood/Making of Guinea Pig Double Feature 21 reviews Kirara Yugao, Mio Takagi
Unearthed Films, 2002
D-i-s-m-e-m-b-e-r-m-e-n-t! Dismemberment! Dismemberment! Go Japan!
+ This is the one you want
"Flowers of Flesh and Blood" is one of the most notorious splatter films of underground horror. The idea is simple: A Japanese dude kidnaps a Japanese chick, sedates her in this room that almost makes a "Saw" set-up look like Shangri-La, and the following is done to the lady, all while dressed up ...

Volta 134 reviews Björk
Atlantic / Wea, 2007
play a volta!
i have always enjoyed bjork for what she gives to the world through her music. i don't ever want to take her too seriously or overanalyze her. i'm sure she doesn't enjoy that either.
i appreciate her encounters with timbaland, particularly 'innocence'. that song is a lot of fun and i can't wait ...

George Gershwin - Porgy & Bess / Trevor Nunn · Sir Simon Rattle · W. White · C. Haymon · Glyndebourne Opera 119 reviews Willard White, Cynthia Haymon
EMI Classics, 2001
Gershwin's masterpiece receives a performance worthy of it.
+ The classic DVD currently on the market - a film of the opera performance done at England's Glynnebourne, always well done there + George Gershwin - Porky & Bess
"Porgy & Bess" is George Gershwin's masterpiece and one of the 10 greatest operas ever written (see my list on Amazon). For a long time (and even now ... Leonard Maltin's review, e.g.) condescendingly called a "folk opera" (translation: "the Met won't do it"). Bollocks. True, Gershwin himself ...

This is probably Beck's most cohesive effort stylistically and in tone. It all runs very smoothly from one song to the next and they're as usual pretty remarkable songs. Many people dislike this cd because it doesn't fit their expectations and others embrace it for the very same reason. It is a ...
