Joanna Newsom?

This sounds like exactly the kind of half assed venture that's thwarting my dream of PTA adapting Mason & Dixon for HBO.

A 15 second piece of music looped for ten minutes with absolutely no melodic or dynamic change?!? Sounds like "Human After All", all over again .

The Lake Speed EP is pretty easy to find and a great listen that lays out the genesis of Silver Jews and Pavement.

The AV Club would probably receive Life's Too Short a bit more warmly if Warwick Davis was launching an enterprise called DAWES FOR HIRE!

Scorsese knows that the best part of "Cats" is when the "Cats" go into the audience.

"Instead of solos, guitarist Mike Sullivan plays ghosts"
