Way Cool Wednesday – 5 October 2016

Ah, Way Cool Wednesday. It’s been a while since I did one of these, so I figured that It’s about time that I set another one up. As per the norm, I’ve been aimlessly trawling the internet and taking note of whatever random things happen to leap out at me. Herein, I’ve compiled a couple of cool things that I’ve found that fall under the theme rather random theme of ‘the year 2009’ …

 

WAY COOL VIDEO: THE CAT WITH HANDS

Robert Morgan made a short film about a cat with human hands. It’s creepy, it’s disturbing, and it’s remarkably well done. At only 3:31 long too, it’s a good little way to kill some time while waiting for the bus or whatnot.

 

WAY COOL POSTING: TOP TEN ANIME OF 2009

https://aquabluesweater.wordpress.com/2013/07/05/best-anime-series-of-2009-meta-ranking-analysis/

So here, aquabluesweater has gather the composite scores from various anime review sites and used these to give a top ten series of the year 2009. What’s quite interesting to see is that some of these are still very much talked about much loved now, seven years on. For my own part, I’ve seen a few of them and have at least heard of most of them, albeit in some cases (such as Skip Beat) long after the year of release.

 

WAY COOL MUSIC: WHITE TRASH CIRCUS [MOTLEY CRUE]

I really like Motley Crue. Their ‘Dr Feelgood’ album was among the first vinyl records that I bought, along with Black Sabbath’s ‘Sabbath Bloody Sabbath’. While it didn’t reach the dizzying heights f love that I give to the aforementioned Sabbath album, it is still something that I enjoy. This particular song comes from the band’s last studio album, ‘Saints of Los Angeles’. It’s a pretty cool slice of sleaze rock if you ask me, with a catchy riff and a good vocal showing from Vince Neil.
