Both spent their time in the mid-late 90s slowly working their way through the indie part of their designated genre, before making a turn of the century decision that it was all a pile of shit and making a beeline straight for the popscape.
Both play off their backgrounds, which see them automatically placed at, if not odds, then as an outsider to those who they seek to compete with.
Both have their mothers loom large over their work.
Both really should never touch a bottle of blonde dye ever again.
ILM used to have a lot of threads about both about three years ago and none nowadays.
