Hi. I'm Izzy Rankin; songwriter of (fantasized) hit songs such as "Secret Vices" and I demand things to be AWESOME! Original? Eh, not so much...

"You could probably take the most original bands of their time and, ya know, their only playin' what they've heard in their record collections. They might have a more eclectic record collection than you had, but my record collection consisted of the Beatles, the Stones, T. Rex, David Bowie, and lots of greatest hits, and that's what I used to listen to. I'm fuckin' asked about fuckin' extra tracks on a fuckin' Pink Floyd bootleg from 1972. I don't fuckin' give a shit. I'd rather listen to 'I Am The Walrus' 20 times in a row." - Noel Gallagher, Definitely Maybe Documentary
