"Does this record qualify as hardcore? Who actually gives a fuck? This was unquestionably my favorite album at the time and the first proper show I ever played was opening for BSF on this tour in London. I guess it's emocore. Whatever. Listening back now, it's a little cringey in places, but music is never as pure and affecting as it is when you're 16 and falling in love for the first time, and seeing them play these songs at the Red Eye remains one of my favorite musical memories."

Sacha Gervasi recommended This Is Spinal Tap (1984) in Movies (curated)

"The last one, for me, just in terms of comedy, is This is Spinal Tap. [Laughs] I mean, I love Spinal Tap. When I first saw it in 1984 I was the only person in the cinema at Swiss Cottage in London, and I didn’t know whether it was real or if it wasn’t. [Laughs] It was just so profoundly funny. I think it obviously inspired me personally, in a huge way. I would say that the movies that inspired Anvil! were a combination of Withnail and I and This is Spinal Tap. [Laughs]"

"Well I guess this is cheating because it’s 10 movies, but I like [Krzysztof Kieślowski’s] Decalogue a lot. That’s one director I was sad when he passed away, because I would have loved to have worked with him — although he never really worked with American actors. I love all of his films but Decalogue is very satisfying. When I watched it for the first time I saw them all in two days, as this little cinema in London. I watched five the first day and the second five the next day."
