I love each band's full length cd. CS is a bit quirkier. Both are good. I think I'll give the edge to Star Star, however. The reason being that they also had a second un-released cd that is great. CS only had a rather flacid EP (albeit with an awesome cover of S.O.S.)
Your opinions?
Celebrity Skin. Great singer. Intelligent song
writing.
Love Drag Years did nothing for me, playing it
a few years after I bought it.

I'll say STAR STAR.....by a long shot.
CS I found to be very cheesy.
People say this - 'chessy' - about one
CS's biggest influences, Rocky Horror
Picture Cobblers. But I never 'got'
Rocky Horror, so I don't understand it.
I quite like the idea of going to the cinema
in stockings and basque, mind you, but the (RH)
music, I think, is awful.

I'd have to say Star Star, but Celebrity Skin were pretty cool too!
CS had a style that was very individual back then. A sort of whacked-out acid sort of Pantomime show and videos.
Star Star win it for me due to the chunkier sound and more aggressive delivery.
Skin had 1 cool original song, and then the amazing SOS cover, and that was it.
Star Star stood a chance to be one of the greatest Glam bands ever, but then chose the alternate route and just disappeared.
Star Star all the way.
Never heard CS, but "The Love Drag Years" is one of my favourite albums, so it's a pretty safe bet to say it'll be Star Star.
I know I've had 'Love Drag Years' in the player many more times the 'Good Clean Fun'
Both good, fun, kick up your heels type
But my vote...Star Star
Darren,the music in Rocky Horror was never meant to be "good". The whole movie was total camp,music included. I do have to say watching Tim curry play Dr. Frank N Furter is a joy to behold. Gotta love it!!!!! Wish I had those legs..LMAO!
Shock horror news!!:::I have never heard CS!!!But I lurve StarStar,so they get my vote 4 sure :-)
never heard of CS but Star Star rocks. I actually have two copies of Love Drag. I just found one at a hole in the wall cd shop in LA brand new still sealed. It cost a whopping 92 cents. Imagine that.
Kandi - I think the RH music is bad at being
rubbish. Actually, come to think of it, I
hate musicals, period. I think the music in
musicals gets in the way of a good film. [img]wink.gif[/img]

<font size="3" face="Arial">Well, would you look at this!?! Darren and I actually agree 100% here!!! I loath RHPS and for the most part loath musicals. The closest I get is my intense love for The Marx Brothers.Quote:

Haha! Who woulda thought it? Rocky Horror...
utter blx, innit.
A uni friend recently confessed to being an extra
in the remake of South Pacific (which he took
part in when they it shot in Oz).
But the bastard made me watch all of it, because
he wouldn't tell me whereabouts he was.
Again: interesting plot completely fucked by
the music.
