Siouxsie Sioux

Lead singer of the 1970's-1990's goth rock band Siouxsie and the Banshees. Created her own individuality through her provocative dress style and exaggerated eye makeup, yet is a role model for many people. She now lives with her husband and former SATB drummer, Budgie, in France.

Jello Biafra

The lead singer of the bay area punk band, The Dead Kennedys, who's material included some of the most groundbreaking and intelligent music I have ever heard. This is because of Jello Biafra. That man is politically and intellectually informed. And funny while at it. Although the Dead Kennedys were during the Reagan era, his views still speak strong today, and today he works actively for change. Go research the guy, he OWNS YOU.
Jello Biafra for president...2012!!!!!!
(So I can vote for him then :)

Up-talking

When one, particularly a younger person, ends every phrase and sentence as if it were a question. This practice could be derived from the "valley girl" excuse for talking during the nineties, but many people still do it today out of uncontrollable habit.

The Libertines

The Libertines are a British band who love British culture, drugs, alcohol, sex, and rock and roll. Considered by some to be "the only current band that actually acts like a real rock and roll band" due to their infamously scandalous history.

The members are Pete Doherty (notorious adorable crackhead sleazegod) on guitar/vocals, Carl Barat (seedy yet respectable sex idol with the best hair and arse) on guitar/vocals, John Hassall (more quiet member, favored by Adam Green, with famous cheekbones) on bass, and Gary Powell (Sadly sometimes ignored yet absolutely amazing) on drums. The media however, LOVES focusing on the troubles and love-hate relationship of Pete and Carl, thus the other 2 members are hardly seen.
The Libertines' music is reminiscent of The Clash, The Jam, and even some reggae. One album was produced by Mick Jones of The Clash. Their songs are deep, dancy, melodic, and of course, oh so sassy. Go do yourself a favor and listen to these beautiful British lads.

Julian Casablancas

The very essence of sex, an amazing songwriter, singer and musician all in one. He is the lead singer/songwriter for rock band The Strokes, and is incredibly talented and sophisticated. He is also the most gorgeous man in rock today. He knows how to dress, he's got class and god dammit one look at those juicy lips, sultry eyes and sexy ass and you're hooked forever. He's so apathetic but he expresses so much radiant emotion by just existing. The kind of guy you would want to walk in on while he's jackin off then do dirty shit to!
Julian Casablancas belongs in my bed. His sophistication and class drive me madly insanely in love, and he is too good for the MTV/mainstream audiences. He's too classy to be famous, and still too sexy even when he looks apathetically stoned. We can get drunk and be melancholy together. I LOVE JULIAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Siouxsie and the Banshees

A rock band fronted by Siouxsie Sioux that originated in London at the time of the Sex Pistols, The Slits, The Clash, and many other Brit punk scene bands. Siouxsie had her own unique style, mixing Ancient Egyptian eye makeup and occult and provocative dressing preferences. They originated their own specific style, usually surrounding mystery and horror, but it can be on the light side too. They have been around for more than 20 years and released numerous albums but broke up a few years ago.
The (in)famous Sid Vicious played drums for Siouxsie and the Banshees at their first gig.
