MP3: Cortex - Safe in the dark
Thoughts on seeing "Let the right one in/Låt den rätte komma in" at the Olympia Film Festival this past weekend:
- It's lonely being a pre-teen misfit
- Being a vampire is far more lonely
- It takes a really creepy dude to live in servitude to an eternally 12 year-old vampire
- Stockholm suburbs haven't changed much in 26 years, at least in my (admittedly small) experience
- If someone hits you, hit back harder
- The previous is even better if a vampire's got your back
- Sewn-shut genitals are never a good look on anyone
- Everyone just wants to be understood
Since the film was set in 1982, here's a thematically appropriate track from the mighty Cortex recorded live the same year for the famed show "Ny våg" on Swedish Radio. Download more awesome live Cortex stuff at Tonkraft: http://tonkraft-sr.blogspot.com/
