I Saw U2 Live Twice's definitions
a young French all-woman rock'n'roll band that formed a few years ago. They consist of:
Katty Beanard - vocals + guitar
Marine Neuilly - guitar
Louise Basillein - bass
Anais Vandevywere - drums.
Their sound is based on post-punk and New Wave styles, pretty similar to another great all-woman band from the 80's, the Go-Gos. The singing is done in both English and their native French. Their first album was LP1, which featured the hits "Loser", "Pop In, Pop Out" and the Joan Jett -inspired "Shake". Late last year they released "about love" - it's one of the best albums put out last year. Check them out, they're one terrific export from France.

1. The Plastiscines got their name from "plastiscine", a word found in the lyrics of the psychedelic Beatles hit "Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds". That word itself refers to a glue or cement which is sold in the U.K. and Europe.
2. The Plastiscines are the vanguard of what may well be a revival of rock'n'roll music. For over a decade there has been chumpy boy bands, gangsta (c)rap, American Idol puke pop, phony country, phony punk, phony r & b, stupid airheads who have zero talent who shake their butts (with dancers behind them), lip-syncing to a disc while people gawk in an empty-headed way, and other bullshit. Now here is an all-female rock group that writes and sings their songs and actually plays their own instruments. Yes they are young, cute and French (ooh la la) but they make and perform SONGS. Music is their #1 priority. How about them apples?
3. There's other fresh new bands too - the Danish boy/girl (ala Eurythmics) duo the Ravionettes, Datarock from Norway, the French band Phoenix and the new guitar goddess from Down Under - Orianthi Panagaris - all who are worth hearing. After so many years of musical hell and the "Worst Decade Ever" (the 00's), rock'n'roll and its culture may finally be coming back to life again. I hope so.

Get the Plastiscines mug.a person who will do ANYTHING for personal pleasure or gain. This person uses people with sob stories and fibs and worms and weedles the way to his/her goal BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY (no diss to Malcolm Shabazz). Such people are also called brownnosers, bootlickers and asskissers.
Every day at the start of the shift Greg went to Mr. Goremann's office for a special "pumping up" chat session. The rest of us working "trash" would watch this drama enact itself day after day. We'd say, "Looka this. Greg is such a cocksucker!". One day Greg got promoted to head chief of the plant crew. 6 months later he hung himself in a storeroom with a note saying that he lost his soul and couldn't handle the new responsibilities.

Get the cocksucker mug.1. a southern slang phrase that means "flying off the handle", losing ones cool and losing ones self-control. Some people also think it could mean to get laid.
2. a big 1991 hit song from the Georgia rock band R.E.M..

1. George: Jeremy has been acting funny since he polished off a bottle of Wild Turkey.
Billy: Yep, he's lost some of his religion.
2. The title "Losing My Religion" caused some confusion at first here in the MidWest.

Get the losing my religion mug.1. a popular truck, used for fire truck and other purposes. Made by the R.E. Olds automobile company. Popular in the 1940s and 1950s.
2. a popular American hard rock band that had several hits in the 1980s like "Don't Let Him Go", "Can't Fight This Feeling", "Keep On Loving You", "In My Dreams" and more.

1. In the Canadian Automotive Museum in Oshawa, Ontario, Canada I saw an REO Speedwagon. Also, my mom remembers the REO Speedwagon truck.
2. Hit REO Speedwagon albums include "High Infidelity" and "Wheels are Turning".

Get the REO Speedwagon mug.A controversial woman in the world of rock in the late 20th century to today. A washed-out bleach blonde who had her day yet still has to be in the limelight just to let you know she's here. She was married to Kurt Cobain of grunge superstars Nirvana and after he committed suicide on April 8, 1994 and Nirvana imploded, she read his suicide note tearfully in public, calling him an 'asshole'. Then shortly thereafter, she laid Percy Farrel of Porno for Pyros AND Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails and backtalked about how bad in bed they were. Before she met and married Kurt, she worked as a stripper and even gave head to Ted Nugent when she was a preteen. She has a very long and dirty past, and this starfucker reputation has made her a target of bad media attention. Still, she put it on herself.
She gets blamed by some for Kurt's death but I don't think she did it. She fronted the band Hole, which was so-so at best, playing guitar and (ahem) singing? Then she went solo and got into legal issues with the Nirvana survivors. To this day she riles up concertgoers at her shows to chant 'The Foo Fighters are FAAAAGGGGSSSS!' which shows her gross lack of class and extreme immaturity. Always looking for attention, she even got up on Dave Letterman's desk and revealed her tits to him on TV. A total no class whore.

1. Courtney Love is the Yoko Ono of alternative rock. Yoko got blamed for the Beatles' breakup and John's death, but the others deny it. After all, she worked with them to compile and finally release the Beatles Anthology project which came out in 1995. Still, the rumors and conspiracy talk go on...
2. Courtney Love may have inspired other women to pick up a guitar, which is cool. But God knows there are SERIOUS female rock'n'rollers who DON'T play the 'sexual image/dumb bitch' bullshit (Go-Go's, Bangles, L7, Heart, Plasticines, Shonen Knife, etc.) that have talent and praise who need to be recognized. And Courtney Love with her stupid antics gives ALL these lady rockers a very ugly name. Disgraceful.
3. The pioneering Go-Go's are now in the Hall of Fame, and so are Heart and Joan Jett, women rockers. Shonen Knife is getting quite an audience now after paying their dues since 1981. Others like Julianne Hatfield and Sheryl Crow also keep their lives private and don't push this sexual angle, they let their music do the talking. That's why these female rockers are still around and Courtney Love is a used-up has-been starfucker broad that nobody really wants to have or be with. She's history.

Get the Courtney Love mug.really strange, maybe a little crazy. Also, it's the title of a hit album by superstar Michael Jackson.
Me, Rich and Bill agree that one of the things that make the band Talking Heads so cool is that they are so off the wall.

Get the off the wall mug.an overrated, cocaine-fueled, whitebread, surburban, corporate, Anglo-American "California" Seventies Adult Contemporary band with a strong yuppie and soccer mom fan base. Their "classic" 1977 album "Rumors" ain't so great. What they did in the Eighties IS an improvement, however. Still, they are a favorite of Tipper Gore, who tried to censor ALL music she didn't like, and take away our freedom of choice and expression. Fleetwood Mac is for those who don't like their music to be too challenging. This is a reason why we had to have the punk rebellion. Check out the members' solo albums for more exciting music.
Fleetwood Mac has a handful of decent singles (like "Tell Me Lies") but that's about it. When Bill Clinton was inaugerated in 1993, Fleetwood Mac reformed to play for the elite crowd. The muckety-mucks were on TV shaking their butts. WFD.
