[bav]

Yay! I won a Bav funny!

You know, I still use your "pretty princess dress up" line (a shot at  ffX.2)

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Heheheh....I wish I could claim credit for that line, but alas....I stole it from one of my friends.

But I'm glad yer enjoying it >grin<

This week:

Who was the person who coined the phrase: "Goth Rock"?

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Siouxsie Sioux?

[LuluVox]

Well, there's an old article from 1977ish or so, where Siouxsie describes the Banshee's sound as 'gothic'.

Or so they say. Who really knows.

[LuluVox]

Well, we won't know until Phee wakes up.

Hmph.

Well, there's an old article from 1977ish or so, where Siouxsie describes the Banshee's sound as 'gothic'.

Or so they say. Who really knows.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

I have read the same thing. If memory serves, someone asked her what the newly formed Banshees music would sound like, and her response was something to the effect of, "I'm not sure, but I think it will be gothic."

[LuluVox]

Ahem!

[phee]

where Siouxsie describes the Banshee's sound as 'gothic'.

Ding Ding Ding.... correct (according to my sources) Siouxsie is the first person to refer to her music as Gothic

[LuluVox]

Whoo! Thanks for finishing this, I was going crazy.

This weeks question:

What is the name Slayer an achronym for?

[phee]

to METAL for people eh?

[Brenda Starrr]

Synthetic Lifeform Assembled for Yelling and Efficient Repair?

[phee]

However much I like it.... it is incorrect.

[Brenda Starrr]

It was the best I could do.....

[phee]

You got one word right!!!

[Fierce Critter]

I actually heard the answer to that once, but it didn't stick in my memory banks of useless trivia that'll never win me a red cent on Jeopardy.

I'll refrain from googling it in case someone really knows the answer.

[Brenda Starrr]

Satan Laughs As You Eternally Rot

[phee]

Well Done!!!! We have a winner

[Brenda Starrr]

I actually won something. Wait, what did I win??

[phee]

Easy for this week:

Define Depeche Mode:

[Hermine]

A press release about fashion.

Learned that in French last semester

Edit to add: Nobody in my French class had heard of Depeche Mode except my French professor.

Apparently, he and his friends (they did not speak much English at the time any of them) used to try to figure out what they are saying. I shall always remember that class for the priceless image of a room full of French Canadian teenagers sitting around with a copy of Black Celebration and going "What the fuck?"

[phee]

We have a winner!!!!

This weeks question:

What was the first band to ever call themselves "Electronic Body Music" or "EBM" and when?

[fallennon]

This is a long shot here but I'm going to guess Front 242. One of my ex's was really into EBM and I think he said it was them...I might have the name wrong though...

[phee]

That is correct.... do you know when?
