Weird Indie Kids




I'm starting this series of posts to divulge the weird indie kids like me out there with the weird stuff that we like. Where I am currently most people have never listened to Sonic Youth, read or seen A Clockwork Orange , or even heard of Erin Wasson. It's quite sad really.
But here's our forum for totally bizarre discussions on totally rad and obscure pop-culture occurences.

My first topic of Indie Pop Culture is director Gregg Araki.
The first time I watched Mysterious Skin I was hooked. His movies are raw and crude, just how they should be. They have this kind of grungy beauty to them.
And then there's Doom Generation and Nowhere. Now those movies are not for the faint-hearted and they are totally gorgeous for it. When I watched these movies, it gave me an epiphany. This is what movies should be; raw expressions of human indignities.








Check em out. They may just change your perceptions.
