the cure had their moments of nice upbeat new wave, where as the smiths were always down troden. I like both bands. They make me feel like puttting on mascarra and overly large sweaters and writing poetry lol ---

danzig had nothing to do with the 80’s. the misfits were the shit, but when he went off on his own he was just a big sack of shit. > [@Smaefer](#): > > That’s a hard one Jam… no doubt. i bet if you asked a room full of drunk 30 somethings, someone would lose an eye, and someone else would walk out with hair like the flock of seagulls dude. ---
