I was born after that show, so that comment doesn't apply to me. It's amazing how quickly I've learned to use the internet.

At what point will bands like this go away? Awful. It does sound like a video game.

Are there any Studio B shows that aren't 21+? I've never seen one of those.

Trent Reznor using the Crystal Crassholes as an opening act is like Obama having Romney as running mate:

ok, so i might not be the authority on chipset musics, but i fail to see exactly how CC are accused of stealing. is it because they borrowed lo-bat's sounds? i listened to the 2 songs side-by-side and found little resemblence to the between either tunes. apparently the fuss is about the tonal quality of the 8-bit noises only lo-bat knows how to make. i think it may be only because this genre of music is relatively new (which is probably part of the reason why CC didn't credit lo-bat) but i can't help but feel this is similar to the way hip-hop artists sample soul or jazz artists. Even your favourite guitar driven rock borrow riffs and phrases all the time, let alone the tone of thier instruments (see: black keys, raconteurs, etc.)
The point is: artist steal all the time.
Even picasso said: good artists borrow, great artists steal.
The melody of the two songs are completely different, and until CC blatantly rip-off one of lo-bat's melodies, you have very little backing you up. Also: you're pissed CC is popular. get over it.
