Ghost In The Shell (Original Manga)

A couple weeks ago I found and purchased the rare out-of-print Ghost In The Shell manga by Masamune Shirow. Being that I have been looking for this manga since around 2004, I was surprised reading it. It is quite different than the movie. The movie only touches upon more the first part and the last part of the book. The book however goes more into detail about Section 9 (how it was formed, and it's operations). Of coarse it centers around Major Motoko Kusanagi, her team and their beginnings... and to the end where Motoko "fuses" with an A.I..   Yep, this is cyberpunk. Being that this book is written and drawn by my favorite manga artist I would definitely say check this out!

We Are Here To Dance! re-release!

Well, here it is Twitch's second album re-released on bandcamp.com. Twitch: We Are Here To Dance!

33 1/3: Pretty Hate Machine

Well, picked up 33 1/3: Pretty Hate Machine by Daphne Carr. When I originally picked this book up I mistakenly thought this would give insight into the writing and production of Pretty Hate Machine by Nine Inch Nails. Instead it is a book about the world Nine Inch Nails made and what was the world that made Nine Inch Nails. It's a quick read (179 pages). It's basically fans telling their stories of how they got into NIN and how NIN shaped their lives. Lots of similar stories here. It is a good read, not what I was looking for but good anyway!

Ghost In The Shell: Stand Alone Complex Manga

Just finished reading Ghost In The Shell: Stand Alone Complex: Episode 1 manga. This was written/drawn by Yu Kinutani. This is an expansion on the Ghost In The Shell universe. It was a very quick read (1-2hrs). The story was excellent. Basically about how a high-ranking government official is kidnapped and Section 9 is brought in to find the official and solve the case. Of coarse all the main characters are here; The Major, Bato, Aramaki, Togusa, even the Tachikomas. Very good! If your into cyberpunk this is an excellent book to get. I'm finding I can't get enough of this stuff!

Fuckin' Problems

Been listening to this pretty much the entire evening:
