Yeah, he's one of the last musicians I could imagine being featured on Guitar Hero but I don't think it's it's horrible or anything. But if they're using Elliott Smith now, I'm curious to see what other artists they'll choose in the future.

You guys really care too much. The real issue here is how much Elliott Smith's estate has been raped lately.

What else have they used his music for lately? The last time I heard him on any sort of tv show was on Gossip Girl.

I don't know exactly but ever since New Moon came out I've regularly received text messages saying: "Elliott was on Ugly Betty! Elliott was on One Tree Hill!" and I even heard him on some crappy teenage love movie I was watching at three am. Really the only person who should be allowed to touch his songs cinematic wise is Gus Van Sant.

That aside, they were selling Elliott Smith postcards which is ridiculous. The only good thing about the New Moon merchandise was them selling a wider variety of Elliott Smith t-shirts.

No love for The Royal Tenenbaums? The last Gus Van Sant film I saw was Paranoid Park and he used The White Lady Loves You More and Angeles but I like his use of Elliott's music. But postcards? Really? I have to go google a picture now.

I thought his version of "Because" worked well at the end of American Beauty.

This guy's music is amazing. How did I go so long with only Either/Or to listen to? I've only listened to the beforementioned album as well as Roman Candle, s/t, and XO. Any recs of where to go next?
