Wasnt Charles manson that guy who murdered people

No. The murders were committed by members of Manson's "Family," and Manson himself, seen according to the media as someone who wanted to incite a race war known as "Helter Skelter," emerging as the head of those left behind after the ensuing apocalypse, was persecuted and imprisoned (nothing's been directly attributed to him AFAIK other than the fact that he had a less-than-pleasant upbringing and once wanted to be a musician).

Don't blame me. Blame Bugliosi's (prosecutor in the case) book on the subject, Helter Skelter (I haven't been able to find objective info on the case). In any case, the only reason I mentioned him is because I consider him a decent musician despite his reputation.

I almost hit a girl in English for saying that she hated blur because they sucked and cut Adele short at the Brit awards :(. Kids these days.

Bitches don't know 'bout good music.




Boards of Canada should do a song with Bon Iver. They really have a quite similar style (nostalgic, broken-sounding music played with old instruments in a lonely place far away from society), just in different genres.
