American Sniper: American Sniper - The Battle For Fallujah - A Poem By Darryl Mason

http://americansniperpoem.blogspot.com/2014/01/american-sniper-battle-for-fallujah.html

Friday, 10 January 2014. American Sniper - The Battle For Fallujah - A Poem By Darryl Mason. Kill one man, terrorise a thousand". The instructor had pointed to the sign. On the wall at the school where I learned. It didn't have a fancy name, this school. Like 'tactical depopulation training'. We called it what it was. Then they sent me here. Kill one man, terrorise a thousand". He smiled when he read the sign to me. My scores were good. He told me he was proud of me. I see him now still tapping that sign.

Junkhead: February 2009

http://junkheadbook.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html

Monday, February 2, 2009. Regurgitator, April 1996. Chances are, you're not likely to hear a more infectious, pop-catchy Australian tune this year than Rinsing (released as Sucked A Lot Of Cock To Get Where I Am. The opening song from Regurgitator's debut album Tu-Plang. Problem is, it's highly doubtful that you'll hear Rinsing on any radio station, short of a 3am airing on JJJ when the moral guardians of our (thankfully) perverted society are all fast asleep in bed. When Regurgitator were first offered ...

Junkhead: December 2008

http://junkheadbook.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html

Monday, December 1, 2008. Jeff Buckley On Death, Fucking And The Lingering Influence Of Sesame Street. I'm weird in the head.sometimes," says Jeff Buckley, his voice quiet and low and soft, as though he has gotten used to this fact. Simply accepted that his mind, his brain, does not function in what most would deem to be 'normal' ways. That's okay with him. He has put his 'weird head' ideas and moods to monumental use on his acclaimed debut album, Grace. His thoughts, through his words, show his mind bol...

Junkhead: October 2011

http://junkheadbook.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html

Friday, October 14, 2011. Sky Valley is also the name this band of the desert chose for their third studio album, the visually-enticing moniker doing mighty fine justice to the jus'-jammin' man, free-form heavy rock, or stoner rock as it's becoming known, that flows and glows all across this disc. The dry heat and lack of entertainment across the desert does, however, invigour remarkable creativity within the young desert dwellers in their search for pleasurable pursuits. More and more young desert bands...

Thursday, September 15, 2011. 1995 : Silverchair Live. How do they do it? How the fuck do they do it? You can see that look on faces all across the Metro as Silverchair somehow pull their 10 minute long version of Pure Massacre back from a rollicking, ramble-jam that was becoming something seriously hypnotic and wrap it all up with a detonating epilogue of cannon-fire drumming and a whole battalion of bass n' lead riffaging. A glint over a year into weekend and school holiday touring jaunts, it's becomin...

Junkhead: Getting There - The Archive Opens Up

http://junkheadbook.blogspot.com/2014/04/getting-there-archive-opens-up.html

Tuesday, April 15, 2014. Getting There - The Archive Opens Up. Only downside of having written so much about rock and metal in the late 1980s and 1990s is most of it is in print only, so no digital copies. I'm in the process of finding the old stories, scanning them, or just retyping them, so I can get them up here. But here's a bit of a preview of what's coming up over the next few months (or year). Faith No More In Sydney - Interviews, Show Reviews, Hanging Out (1990). Guns N Roses Down Under. From 198...
