Lacuna Coil

Well no kittens drowned nor did the Baby Jesus get an ass-beating. I was about to burn down the fucking Smurf village due to all this goddamned shitty music that I've purchased (talk about bait and switch) but at the last minute a saving grace came at the 11th hour: LACUNA COIL - KARMA CODE. Let's face it. Christina Scabbia, the lead singer is hot. For an Italian chick she's damn smoking (next to Lucia Ciaferlli of KMFDM and porn star Aria Giovanni of course). I picked up Lacuna Coil's album Comalies back in 2002 time frame and was instantly hooked. Of course they were practically unnoticed at the time since those goddamned retards Evanescence were getting their 15 minutes of shame. They had commandered the airwaves, television and magazines while bands with REAL TALENT like Lacuna Coil were still to be discovered by the mainstream. Then, out of the blue - about a year later - Comalies started to get the attention it deserved. Both Metal Edge and Revolver Magazine started to plug them and people in the metal scene were becoming familiar with their music. It was cool that they were getting the publicity they deserve but yet they weren't getting overplayed on Top 40 radio like every other band seems to have happen when the corporate exec assholes push their agenda on us, the listeners. For once a band with real artistic qualities was getting noticed and it was on their own terms. Listen kids, I'm relatively low-maintenance (pay attention ladies) - just gimme my music fix and you can pave the Garden State Parkway toll bridge over my house and I could care less, but cut my music supply off or gimme shitty albums from (once) great bands and I'm going on a rampage. I highly recommend you pick up this CD. You will love every minute of it, I guarantee you. You can listen to this at work, in the car, or at home with your goddamned kids raising hell because it's one of those take-anywhere kinda albums. Ultimately you want to fuck to tracks 6 and 7 since they lead into one another. Just throw in some kinky sex for good measure and you're in like Flynn. The DIMMU BORGIR CD I listened to last night was awesome too, but it pales in comparison to this album. I think the next chick I bang will get a double-dose of both. Heh.

Of course! Lacuna Coil ROCKS.

Glad you like them too, Ruckus ~! ;) Check 'em out this summer if you get the chance - they're touring with Rob Zombie.

I'm thinking they'll spend most of their tour in the US for the summer and then return to Italy and do a tour over here. I'll have to look online or something
