Thanks heaps! Will *definitely* be keeping an eye on this one, it’s a lot of fun and just browsing on my lunch break brought me up to speed with a lot of bands I haven’t really been following lately.

By the way, thanks for commenting (not many people do). I checked out your blog (http://positivelybleak.com/) and it’s a blast!

There’s also “Aaah! Real Monsters!” if you were a Nickelodeon child as I was – so it really boils down to Clash of the Titans ripping off Pan’s Labyrinth ripping off ’90s Nicktoons. I’m sure it goes even further back than that…

I like ‘em all! And yeah, it is a blatant Pan’s Labyrinth knock-off. I knew that eyeball-in-the-hand thing rang a bell from somewhere.

Help you out? How does “blatant Pan’s Labyrinth knock-off” sound?

Oh, huh, that’s not a musical reference, is it?

Ray Charles?

*Blind* Guardian? Heheh…
