Unfortunately
The movie was excellent. If your a male < 29 and have an affinity for video games this is the best movie of the year. It even pleases a movie fan boy like me, much more so than Kick Ass did, which I also enjoyed.
But I have a feeling this is the kind of movie that will get a cult following, and you can bet I'll buy a DVD with all those juicy extras.
To be honest,
HEALTH are pretty indescribable themselves. To their own admission it seems: I saw them play last night in a after-Lollapalooza show, and, yes, they were probably tired as shit from playing in the heat, they also seemed to have no idea who they were. They started with 15 minutes of random screaming and percussion, which was alright, then continued to play a set with zero continuity and a muddled, not exciting USA Boys.
Agreed
In the states if a person is extremely into music and looking to join a conversation of equally intense people the chances are that they are into indie rock and noise (point being people only dabble in dub/electronica, if at all). It's interesting to me to see how in the UK listeners can completely immerse themselves in rock OR dub. Often times both, but it just seems to me like two pretty different channels of tastemakers. Good intro.
