ah yea, i remember these:

AFI- Totalimmortal(i could never figure out the name of this song, only that i heard it a lot during the good ol 98.5 KOME days; it's only watching a CVS2 guile combo exhibition video that i heard the song again; it's a lotta screaming, but the intro's nice)
Lit- Over My Head(right off of the Titan AE soundtrack; one of the more different american anime films; one which actually isn't a stupid disney song-and-dance; it was good; had no idea Drew Barrymore's voice could pass off as a azn tough-girl; psylocke anyone?)

nothing beats the REAL ol skool though... joe satriani KILLS in skill... van halen, eric clapton, jimi hendrix... all these are also wideknown... and much better in talent than anything else you hear today... the closest thing i can think of today has to be creed and 12 stones, but that's about it, more or less.

crunch time for all skoolers, more or less(except for those UCB ppl... damn mandy)... gluck everyone... study hard... forget better luck tomorrow, your actions NOW determine tomorrow... and forget your past... you can't change it now...
