This is really weird, because I was just reading a bunch of stuff about Andrew WK. I suspect that he something like the Andy Kaufman of pop music. There's some really bizarre stuff if you look into it..
Oh, my god, not only did he cover Ai Senshi, one of my favorite Gundam songs of all time, but it's somehow awesome in a brand new way. That is some serious UC love.
Now I suspect Andrew W.K is bigger in the US than the UK?? I really enjoyed 'Party Hard', which in the UK was his most popular and mainstream release over here. Im tempted to invest in a few albums, but im going to do a youtube-a-thon for his stuff just to see. It annoys me that so many good American rock bands go unoticed over here. I love Saliva.....no-one I know over here has heard of them. Maybe my friends are idiots..I just dont know. And Saliva have no plans of touring in the UK...why!!?? The UK is so full of emo-esq, Indie posh twat wanna be bands that it sickens me to the core!! All our old rockers have become pilots..Dickinson im looking at you good sir. Thank goodness for Dragonforce..wink wink. But hey, alls not lost.....we still have X-Factor......(goes into bathroom with shotgun).....sigh**

@CoffinDodger (If the typos crap. Blame my...: I feel the exact opposite, although fortunately we do get most UK bands passing through here at least once or twice before they say fuck it.
