Just... heard... new... Delta... Warp... Can't... control... self... Must... kill... school children... Violence... is... good...
Don't you think you guys should drop the "Peace and Love and Political Correctness" act? I mean after doing some searching I've found this
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Killer_application
Now maybe we can replace "application" with "track" and complain about something else prehaps? This argument has been rehashed so many times, it KILLS me!! 
I personally don't say killer, I prefer to use the term "ça/il/elle déchire" (it tears shit up), "ça pète grave" (it really farts ) and also "smokes" to my anglo saxon buddies. But my underwear doesn't get all twisted when someone says "c'est une tuerie" (it's a killing) or "c'est mortel". Why? Because that someone doesn't say it with hateful thoughts but awe, and also because I have a gift of not taking everything so litterally.
Who knows, maybe if I lived in a country @ war with my neighbors since I was born and the killing and death of my countrymen was commonplace then I would attach more significance to the term. |

How in TrippyJohnny's name did you end up with Politics in this topic??
All i'm saying is the words you are using are not just words. They shape your perception of reality and also the perception of the people around. So, like it or not, when you are using the word "Killer" you are indirectly adding a little bit violent vibe.
I might be wrong, but as i see it the words have much greater meaning and should not be taken for granted.
Some people with the strength of their tongue threw whole continents into wars.

Actually for me words ARE words, and individual responsibility is indicidual responsibility. I sometimes say "killer", but I don't believe that I'm adding violence to the scene, for the same reason why violent movies don't incite people to hurt other people.
Now pavel, I only mentioned "your" environment in order to try to understand where you're coming from, but after a bit of searching I think you're being a tad hypocrite. Allow me to quote you:

I stopped at the first page of this forum No hard feelings of course, I couldn't care less how you describe stuff you enjoy since I don't believe you're out to kill anybody.
Cheers  |

Isn't it nice quoting other topics totally out of the context?

Then there are just other words, massive, huge etc.
Killer is born out of the lack of understanding of the english vocabulary. Its like "nice" "cool" or whatever... In the end, just a word.
The word itself is not the problem, nor is its meaning, its just that when everybody uses it about everything it becomes cliché.
Everything is nice no ? Total Killah no? I have special price for you my friend, for putting drop in brain :-P

Thank you Ocelot!!!
I agree with you completely. Whenever I hear that word - I squirm.
I'm sorry to say I always thought of your music as belonging to that genre / sub-scene of "Killargh Muzak" or "Killargh Artists" even though I only heard a few tracks friends play. Now I know your attitude, I feel like going out and buying your music. Isnt that weird? I dont know if its right or wrong... just how I feel.
The music was like new black polished chrome
that came over the sky like liquid night.

I can tell you that being killed by a bassline on the dancefloor is a very painful way to die... At least, so the psytrance ghosts told me last night....
Killer is dead, but Killllaaarrrrggg is still alive...
