Bang Bang.

Back to school, back to reality. I was going to talk about garage music. Because I've found that new Garage Community. So I spent hours looking for videos tagged "female" within the media section. But finaly I think it will be my next post. I'm not really in the mood. I feel so low at the moment. When I am in a sad period like that, I'm always looking for old stuff I liked. Nostalgia is always a good way for me to relax. I've been doing some screeshots from amazingly horrible movies that I loved when I was younger. Girls were so COOL in the 90's, no doubt.



Steve Urkel was cool but wait a minute, was he really amazing compared to the love of his life? Kellie Shanygne Williams alias Laura Winslow was my fav'. At the end, she even had that typical 90's haircut that was so cool. I can't find any pictures but Tionne "T-Boz" Watkins from TLC had the same haircut in their cvlt video Unpretty.



Left Eye forever in my heart.





Can you imagine being so beautiful and stylish. I think it's beyond words.





Grungy girls coming in to the church to see Whoopi Goldberg singing with the nuns. Instant classic scene.





I've finaly found the amazing pilot of the TV serie Gregg Araki made for MTV. Of course, it was when MTV was cool. Long time ago. But they never continued it, too bad. Anyway you can watch it, like it, screenshot it... PURE 90's PERFECTION.

And finaly, The Craft. Good memories.






Without this horrendous movie (and Buffy) I would have never wanted to be a witch and I would have never created a magic band with friends at school haha. Let's be honnest, Fairuza (has a strange name) is a pretty lame actress but she is physically very interesting. She embodies the cheap goth feeling at its best.



Debi Mazar like Fairuza and played in Nowhere with Rachel True . How can you be so cool that it doesn't even matter if you played in amazing movies like Nowhere and awful stuff like Beethoven! I do think that is the power of Hollywood.



(After this picture) Here are some amazing videos that I love at the moment:





And, well, all the Agent Provocateur videos.


... and so many others <3

To conclude, go and spend hours on this amazing blog with so many GREAT movies from all over the world.

English.

I've always thought it was interesting to write my blog in my maternal language. But at the same time I think it is a good thing to be understood by (nearly) everyone. I'm too lazy and busy to write in french AND english so from now on I'm going to write my articles exclusively in english. It's a bit sad but I'm talking with people from so many parts of the world on the internet and I think it's quite necessary. I hope my english will be good enough though.



Talking about the people I met on the internet I wanted to do a little tribute to some of them. Because generally speaking they all have something interesting to talk about.



Tom runs one of the most amazing blog about esoteric and weird art stuff I've ever visited. He is a clever and mysterious boy and is good at writing.

Timothé is so nice. Living in Russia he manages to speak french quite well! Above all, he lives in the city of Love-Fine. And god only knows how amazing they are!

Kelly is the cuttest english girl. She has amazing tastes (imagine a girl who listens to Penetration, Black Flag, Bad Brains and Nicki Minaj!) and have that tumblr account with many pictures that could be used as wallpapers on my computer!

Thiob is the coolest emoboy in town (besides emo he listens to Cosmetics!). I don't say it very often but we ran together a blogspot about emo/hardcore/noise/whatever music. If you feel like you want to cry/ scream/laugh loudly try our blog. I only post female fronted bands as usual!

Angélica has perfect tastes and comes from Colombia which is exotic. She has that tumblr account which has the greatest new-wave-oriented name ever. She's the kind of girl who likes //TENSE//. Everything has been said.

*Ro at the end runs a great blog with reviews of (pop)punk/hardcore/emo records. Always a lot of informations and details. Real quality blog.



But of course there are so many blogs and website that I like. My layout doesn't allow me to have a favorite section which is quite frustrating but here is a list of great blogs/tumblr/websites from people I know/talk to/used to talk to: Saw light (and all his favorite blogs), Still No Change, Fish Turn Pink, Zorch Factory Records, BlueDatura (Higly Recommended!), Nymphe...



I forget so many blogs.. sorry. I think I'll come and update this post sometimes.

♥♥

I admit I've been teasing you with amazing pictures from the beginning of my post. In fact I've just discovered this website with outtakes from Mama Clothing photoshoots. I was crazy when I saw it. So Beautiful. So Glamourous. So PERFECT. Talking about perfection, I've also found that great project by Aviva Klein to celebrate the fierceness of the Bandana Culture. And I cannot wait! One picture to conclude the article: the classiest woman of the week.

Back to Black.



Je te vois derrière ton écran écouter de la Witch House, cherchant partout des symboles illuminati et passant en revue tes blogspots préférés (et aussi les Tumblr et les Wordpress car BS c'est déjà ringard). Toi qui es toujours à la recherche du truc ultime à blogger, qui a 50 onglets ouverts dans Firefox, qui veut être au top du top. Je te conseille de faire un tour coûte que coûte du côté de Sang Bleu. C'est juste le webzine (aussi en papier) le plus cool de la planète right now. Tu peux aussi aller voir le blog de Lourdes (non je rigole) ou dévorer les nouveaux articles sur Brain Magazine. Et puis à la fin, on finira surement mort d'angoisse de se dire qu'on aura jamais assez d'une vie pour connaître tous les zines trop classes du net et tout connaître de ce qu'ils racontent! Pour se remettre de nos émotions on peut toujours regarder les nouvelles photos de notre détenue préférée en écoutant Kiiiiiii et en pestant contre la nouvelle-fake-generation.



Je viens de me regarder The Runaways. Je suis juste un peu consterné. C'est à peu près aussi subversif que la reprise de Brit Brit (vu au cinéma!) y'a quelques années. Bon après on voit que c'est quand même un projet sérieux, y'a un vrai effort de reconstitution. Malgré ça je reste perplexe, je crois que les deux demoiselles du film de vampires me laissent vraiment de marbre. Je préfère quand même la blonde. A choisir. Mais rien n'est perdu, y'a toujours moyen de retrouver un peu d'espoir. Et de l'espoir j'en ai retrouvé avec quelques découvertes musicales. De la female vox en veux tu en voilà! En commençant par Masshysteri qui a totalement ravagé la blogosphère ces derniers temps. Un vrai engouement pour ce groupe frais et totalement addictif.



Rien de nouveau à l'horizon mais je voulais le signaler pour ceux et celles qui seraient passéE à côté! Depuis leur myspace, j'ai trouvé ce petit groupe qui enchante mes oreilles depuis plusieurs jours, Terrible Feelings. Rien que le nom tout est dit. A mi chemin entre Discount (oui, Alison était moche avant) et Masshysteri on baigne dans l'urgence et l'énergie rock suédoise. Toujours dans le même veine, à force de fouiller le Flickr de monsieur Teenage Lobotomy bah j'ai craqué sur Welcomin' Committee in Flames. Garage punk détonnant avec une nana juste ultra classe au micro.



Ce noir et blanc ça me fait penser que si vous êtes plus branchéE new wave, vous pouvez taper dans Zorro Zensur (leur top friends est ♥). Coup gagnant pour tous les fans de Grauzone et autres bizarreries 80's. Parce qu'on aura beau dire c'était le bon temps. Et ce n'est pas les membres de Makthaverskan qui vont me contredire parce que leur post-punk tout droit sorti des meilleurs chaudrons des 80's est juste divin. A écouter d'urgence pour tous les amateurs de mélodies mélancoliques et vibrantes.
