Before I get into the details of this band, I first have to tell you a shocking and horrifying story. I think there are many people out there who can share in this experience with me as it is my firm belief that there is one out of every bunch (you'll get what I mean in a second). So this kid I went to school with... crazy as hell, always doing the most random shit. He would show up everyday in a different costume, go to the gym as a gorilla on occasion, jumped off buildings into pools (which I guess isn't that crazy)... but to put it in short, he did so much crazy shit that eventually we started calling him "Crazy James." It just fit. At one point him and I actually discussed going to prom together, only I would wear a tux and he a dress. But that never panned out (neither here nor there). Anyways, so I haven't seen or spoken to this kid in about 6 months or so. He started biking across America with very little money in his pocket as some sort of exhibit of peace (don't ask me, I have no idea). Well I was frigen flipping through the tv channels the other night, and there he was on Big Brother. And at first I was like holy shit, how the hell did that happen. But then I realized, it's James... is there anything he couldn't do? Or wouldn't do for that matter? Ok well not a week later my little sis sends me this link; I unsuspectingly clicked. It was James, with his unit in some other guy's mouth. Gay porn. Well I never. I have nothing against homosexuality, by all means, do what you do. But the shit was just shocking. You think you know someone and then you see them doing gay porn. I guess he really is capable of anything... forever living up to the name of Crazy James. And the whole porn thing, well whatever, there is one out of every highschool's graduating class I'm sure, except for that small ass town in the middle of nowhere in North Dakota. But I could be wrong.
Sorry I had to release my shock to someone.
Anyways... so yea COLUMBINE. Gothic industrial pretty much sums it up. Don't ask me but personally I find something sexy in the oddities of a boy who chooses to wear tight pants, 8 inch high boots, and paints his face white. I think it all leads back to my curiosity with the singer of Orgy and his sexual allure. But whatever. Who cares about my crazy interests. Anyways, their music is amazing. Super deviant and heavy. If you are not into electro this is definitely not your deal. However, if you find yourself a fan of Aphex Twin, this might be down your ally.
The boys are a duet and currently unsigned. A little voice inside of me tells me they probably don't want to be signed (or it could be the fact that under the Music Label section it says "no one owns us"... either way). The vibe of "fuck society" is prevelant in almost everything about them. So... if you are dark, enjoy crazy gothic sex deviant electro music, and are truly open minded to good music... check them out. I was certainly taken.

Yeah, a few months ago he posted something about being on Big Brother, but I thought he just got a call back and was gonna go full force with this biking around the world thing before going on some TV show. Anyway, I watch it every year (one of my vices, lol) and when I saw him, I was like DAMN HE WASN'T JOKING.
Anyway, I saw about the gay porn thing too and read he also worked at a gay strip club or something. But I found out on the internet he told everyone in the house he used to have a serious drug addiction.. so possibly had to support that? Dunno... anyway, Go Crazy James.
Good seeing ya this week girl!
