Speaking of Gratuitious...


I'm going to take a small moment of your time internets to describe a love that has braved rough times and eventually conquered all. A love that is so pure that it could contend with even the most isolated natural spring. An adoration so potent that, if one were able to bottle it and consume it, one taste would cause instant transcendence to godhood. This love, my friends, is my love for this man right here, the man before your very eyes, Julian Casablancus.

You guys don't even know. I lost my shit when I saw the strokes at the tender age of 16? 17? (WHAT AGE WAS I!?! IT DOESN'T MATTER!!) and just now, after finally getting a copy of Julian's side project I am lost for words. So instead of talking about it, I'll just show you some supersweet pictures. (But srsly guys, you don't even know).

This is Julian being a cheeky cheeky boy. I like that he's being cheeky. His expression pleases me greatly.

This picture of Julian reminds me of Tron which instantly makes me lose my shit. While I haven't fully watched Tron in its entirety before, just the though of it brings back endless memories of mindfucks. That and HEY GAIZ DAFT PUNK ARE DOING THE SOUNDTRACK TO TRON LEGACY!! THAT MOVIE IS GOING TO BE.THE.SHIT!!!! So, in essence, this picture gives me everything I could ever want from a picture:
  • Julian Casablancus
  • Memories of Tron
  • Dreams of Daft Punk
  • MINDFUCKS!!
Here Julian looks like he's praying. He also has a cheeky smile on his face yet again, he's so cheeky. Cheeky boy.

I like this picture because Julian is being quite immature and using his fingers and his mouth to give the allusion that he is performing oral sex with a woman's vagina (ON THAT NOTE: I have a very close friend who also loves Julian who, for a major portion of the year, would meet me at uni and periodically tell me as many different names for the vagina as possible. Current preference: Minge).

I like this picture because if I put my finger on the screen where Julian is touching the camera, it almost like he's touching me. I can already here what everyone is thinking about this last statement but IT IS NOT CREEPY AND I KEEP MY PANTS ON WHEN I DO THIS!! HOW DARE YOU INSINUATE THAT I HAVE AN ODD PERVERSION FOR THIS PICTURE!!

This is possibly my favourite picture of Julian because:
  1. He's wearing a very flamboyant Batman shirt
  2. He looks very confused as the camera's presence
  3. He is surrounded by wine, who needs that much wine?!?! is he a connesuir?!?!?
And that, dear webternets, is why I love this man in picture form. His music is also mindblowing and amazing but I am in nowhere near a pretentious enough mood to tell you allllllllll about it.

kissikissi,
Michael.
