Music all about Steel and Warriors and all sorts of stuff like that. Often very cheesy. Confused with “rock” music far too often by pretty much anybody who isn’t a big fan of either.
A bit daft.

Requiem for a Dream
Scott’s favourite film of all time.
Taken from Hubert Selby Jr’s book of the same name, it charts the dreams of four individuals whose lives intertwine in a gorgeous, deeply touching, sometimes horrific story that leaves you longing for human company and speechless the first time you see it. Amazing direction by Darren Aronofsky and absolutely stunning acting from the cast which includes amongst others Jennifer Connelly and Ellen Burstyn – def worth watching.
Website kinda gets across the feel of the film, go have a play if you have flash installed and a soundcard
