Nemesis

For those who have not been fortunate enough to see Shriekback in action, I present their "signature" video on You Tube.

Cover him up...I think we're finished.

In the even there's any confusion, the bald one is Barry Andrews.

EDIT: And I should add that this video is the first time I ever saw or heard Shriekback, so you can imagine my first impression. ::nods::

Thank you! for posting that link. My husband and I stopped our afternoon's activities for the joy of seeing this video for the first time in forever.

You know I aim to please, especially where the Shrieks are concerned.

That was possibly the most upbeat creepy song I've ever heard, and I'm an Elfman fan too.

Also, there is a rather high pitched backup singer voice amidst the others, and somehow my mind made a connection between it, and the strange paper mache fish head...

But it's upbeat/creepy in an almost anti-Elfman way, by my reckoning. Then again, my reckoning is a bit skewed, as we all know.

Are you familiar with Gary Numan? I suspect you'd like his stuff too. If you like, I can send you some MP3s

[tinhuviel.livejournal.com]

I have some of his albums
very nice

That was trippy. Especially after the Ambien started kicking in...

Whoa, one should never dabble in the Shrieks and be under the influence. You could have dreams that way.

I haven't seen that in YEARS!

[tinhuviel.livejournal.com]

Yeah? And how did it make you feel to see it again, hm?

I still think he looks like the devil, but that's not a bad thing. :>

MEKKASIMIAN NOT THINK CAN NAME OTHER BAND USE "PARTHENOGENESIS" AS LYRIC!
