Great band! I love Digital along with all the other songs already mentioned. Also I'm looking forward to Control, which is gonna be released this year. Hopefully it will be better than Ray and all those other mediocre biopics about musicians.

 

[rollagasper]

I'm looking forward to seeing Control as well. Is it going to be in most theatres is it one of those indie films?

 

[kanita]

When will it be in theatres?

 

[Twill Bill]

Probably late this year, but there is no definite date yet as far as I know.

 

[city girl]

i can't wait to see control..i wonder if it will be as accurate a description of him as in '24 hour party people'

 

[iluvjeisa]

I always knew Kurt Cobain was a true fan of Ian's but I never thought it was this clear [WARNING - This video may be UPSETTING]

 

[tifa]

Haha, pretty funny (and awful) impersonation of Ian there. Love it!

 

[rollagasper]

Haha, that video is hilarious, and quite unbearable! Thanks for posting!

^That's great to hear! I'd have hated to have a bad movie marr and awesome band.

 

[Colette_B]

I’m excited to see this.!

 

[Diamond Star]

^Me too. The other band members have been quite supportive of it (as far as I've read anyway) which is a good sign
