Big Black

Influential Punk Rock/Noise Rock band from Evanston, Il (a small city/community bordering Chicago to the North). Lasted from 1981-1987, released the two albums "Atomizer" and "Songs about Fucking". Often considered fathers of Industrial Rock. Noted for featuring Steve Albini.
Big Black are the 2nd best band from Chicago, losing the top spot only to Ministry.

The Boat that Rocked

An awesome 2009 Rock music comedy that is horribly underrated. Known as "Pirate Radio" in the U.S., the film is about a group of Renegade Rockers in the 1960s broadcasting Rock n' Roll to the people of Britan all day, every day in a boat off the coast of Britan, when most stations only played jazz. The team is lead by an American DJ simply known as The Count (Phillip Seymour Hoffman). The music and antics attract the attention of Minister Dormandy (Kenneth Branaugh), who plans to shut them down.

Unsuprisingly the film is inspired by the pirate radio stations of the 1960s. The film was laregly panned by critics but is an overall awesome film that you should give a chance (at least) before you die.
I don't feel like watching "The Dark Knight". Let's watch "The Boat that Rocked" instead.

Chicago

The largest city in Illinois, and the state's unofficial capital. One of the greatest cities in the country, and probably the world. Sure, maybe we're not as flashy or glamorous as New York or L.A., but Chicago is a beautiful place and if you spent one day in the city you'd see why it's residents love it.
There's always something to do in Chicago, so don't go knocking it until you've seen it for yourself.

Kill La Kill

Perhaps the most popular anime of 2014. Known for fight scenes and high amounts of fanservice.
Take everything that makes Gurren Lagann so epic and everything that makes Fooly Cooly so bizzare and you've got Kill La Kill.

The Crimson Ghost

There are two potential definitions for crimson ghost:

A. A classic Horror film from 1946.

B. The title character of the above mentioned film.

C. The mascot for the horror punk group The Misfits, who adapted it from the above mentioned movie. It is featured on most of their merchandise and on most of their CDs/Singles. Due to it's dark look a lot of people wear it without knowing much, if anything, about the band.
Kid A: Hey did you ever see the movie The Crimson Ghost.

Kid B: I heard about it, but right now all I know is that it's the logo for The Misfits.

Industrial Music

A very dark and experimental genre of music. The genre was first created by Throbbing Gristle in the 1970's. The sound is characterized by drone-like noises in an ambient style and frequent use of found objects and electronic instruments (mainly the keyboard and computer programming but electric guitars, bass, and drums are found in it). Industrial music became more well-known when the genres of Industrial Rock and Industrial Metal first came into being. Fans of Industrial music are called rivetheads though Industrial is very popular with straight up Goths.

Contrary to what some people say, bands like Nine Inch Nails, Ministry, KMFDM, and some works of Marilyn Manson ARE in fact Industrial. Though these bands have had at least one period of mainstream exposure, they remain relativley underground compared to a lot of other musicians, not to mention a lot of them are back in the underground (while NIN and Manson have performed in stadiums before, they mostly play in smaller venues that barely hold more than 500-1000 people). Bands like the above mentioned ones are great for starting out with Industrial, though if you want to become serious about it you should also check out bands like Controlled Bleeding, Whitehouse, and Coil.
When you listen to Industrial Music, whether it be Throbbing Gristle's "20 Jazz Funk Greats" or Ministry's "The Land of Rape and Honey", you get a certain satisfaction and creative feeling you can't get from most other music.

Hedonism Bot

One of the greatest but most underrated characters on Futurama. Known for being completely golden, always lying down, even while walking, almost always munching on grapes, and always rejoicing at anything and everything that brings him entertainment or pleasure.
Some of Hedonism Bot's best quotes are:

I apologize for nothing!

Surgery in an opera? How wonderfully decadent! And just when I was beginning to lose interest... Djambi, the chocolate icing!

Oh, sirrah, how deliciously absurd!
