implants are kewl For a while now Amazon has been recommending the band Keane to me and today I finally got around to sampling some of their stuff. In Amazon's description of Keane and their sound, bands such as Radiohead, Coldplay and Travis were mentioned for comparison. The main difference between those groups and Keane being the non use of guitars. I own discs from all three of the comparison bands so I was curious to see if the descriptions were true. Now having heard the entire album I can say that the comparisons make sense, yet Keane does have their own sound. ... Wednesdays mean Smallville and the second episode of the season wasn't as good as the season premiere. Lois still has the best lines, but seeing liquid metal boy made me cringe every time that he was on the screen. ... Now maybe I'm being paranoid, but I can not understand why anyone would willing want a device implanted into their arm that could identify them. Isn't this something done to criminals in a Twilight Zone episode? Isn't this a sign of a totalitarian society? Is this where rebel forces rise up to overthrow the maniacal government? No. This is just where people who live to party want to think that they are special. With the implant in place, they don't have to worry about carrying any money with them. Sigh. |
