I'm assuming that this is the reference to "I Alone" that I came here to find.

Most careers don't last five years. I guess you can force them to wait for the next album (2-4 years), but that seems unfair to a great second single. The six months is just to make sure that they're not getting a second hit solely because of the first one. A song that stands on its own shoudl still get credit.

Chris Molanphy proposed rules which I now live by on this subject:

Pulido's use of space is awesome, as are his colors (I believe he does both). Most of the complaints I see (and have) relate to his faces, which are distracting at best. Seriously, look at that "previously" page. Everyone looks like they took a shovel to the face.

I'm a recent comic reader who's exclusively been interested in the smaller, "niche" heroes (Daredevil, Hawkeye). I'm really enjoying the first iteration of Wolverine and the X-Men, and comics like Moon Knight and She Hulk have got me buying day and date comic releases.
I have no interest in the cosmic, very little…

Ugh, "Villains." That was the album that taught me you could like/love every single and still find every other track to be insufferable filler. ("Penny is poison and I don't MIIIIIIIIIIIIND!!!").
Seriously, "Photograph" is still killer, but that album got turned into store credit with a quickness.

Three if you count when he takes the first riff up a step in the middle of each verse.  Honestly, I can't hate on this song - that basic riff pleases my lizard brain.

CB4 is only the jam to people who haven't seen Fear of a Black Hat.

Finally, a place for "Cumbersome" to shine.

We may have very different definitions of "work."

Actually, Rowan, "Hey Ya!" is maybe the best way to subvert any earnest joy with bitter irony (unless, for some reason, you decided to play "I Saw Her Again" by the Mamas and the Papas at your funeral).  The whole song is about the dissolution of love (maybe the impossibility of love), stacked on top of the singer's…

I doubt that many of those moments were rooted in a "boyfriend-girlfriend" dynamic.

Just listening to "Weight," I was thinking of Brendan Benson — but you're a little closer on the voice.

I have to imagine there's a lot more that could be said about this song.  I kinda wish you'd taken the opportunity.

He won't ever see it, but it's a callback to get conversation last week with Linda Cardellini, I think

I got a Community alert for this?

"just comes off as trying way too hard to be edgy."

What!?

I don't know.  Alphabetical has "Run Run Run" and "If It's Not With You," which are two of my favorite songs by them.  The album definitely has it's charms.

Wasn't Ricky Spanish basically the same type of character as Ricky Stanicky, though?  Waiting for the suit to be filed.
