It’s 4am, we just saw the Kaiser Chiefs at this new venue, Trocadero (will write about this show a little later) and then we came back and watched the movie, “Wild Zero”, the zombie/rock ‘n roll movie starring Guitar Wolf!!

Love knows no boundaries, nationality, or gender! ROCK N ROLL!!

If you’ve ever seen this movie, it’s so great, Guitar Wolf is just the best. I’m too tired to actually write any useless trivia (Bass Wolf died last year?), or put together a comprehensive Guitar Wolf discography. The only thing that I will write is that this album I picked up called Loverock is REALLY LOUD.

I will be back later to add in more details about this band… in the meantime, please listen with the volume lowered.

So the guests just left the house, so I’m finally home and I have a few minutes to update this. Here is an interview with Seiji (singer) from Guitar Wolf, which pretty much sum up what Guitar Wolf are all about:

Guitar Wolf – Black Rock’n’roll

P: Even the live show seems to be getting noisier. Like maybe there is a longer period in between songs…
S: Oh really? But maybe from long time ago. I always, I like, I need noise. Because we are no skill. Our skill is no good. No technique. We need…Basic rock and roll is: Number one is looks; Number two is guts, tension; Number three is action; Maybe four, five nothing; Six is skill, technique.

I love how he dismisses skills to number six because he doesn’t think it’s as important as looks and attitude. They have also self-proclaimed themselves as the coolest band in the world.

Trivia: Also, as I mentioned earlier, Bass Wolf died March 30th, 2005 (when I heard the news that he died on April 1st, I had dismissed it as an April’s Fool joke) from a heartattack. He’s been replaced by a new bassist, U.G.

Trivia #2: The origin of the movie “Wild Zero” came from a music video shoot. Apparently, they had written and shot enough footage that they decided to add even more story to make it into a 90 minute feature. As a result, the movie is a crazy mix of zombies, UFO/aliens, explosions (LOTS of it), love, motorcyles, and, of course, rock ‘n’ roll.
