I agree, the lyrics to that song are good. The ripped off riff is unfortunate.

I am suggesting that the imagery used to describe the music is so far removed from anything resembling conventional terms used to describe music that it is absurd.

I question whether comments are working on this piece

Cry havoc and let slip the nerds of prog
Although the naked kid wasn't a first for rush, the context of the album is that the naked kid is Dionysus and the guy in the suit is Apollo—hence why they are standing on different hemispheres of the brain. So he isn't asking the guy to follow him—he's calling him out to…

This review is also punk rock
In that it refuses to conform to the man—there is no reason to mention ideas such as melody or rhythm when you can indicate that the band's sonic blade is serrated and that it creates pop implosions with it.

Less than meh
I made it to 2:22 before I yelled something about hipster douchebags and stopped it. Somebody let me know if it gets better.

Yeah, I did that too. But I didn't 'live the life.' That's pretty much the point of the 'writers doing it part-time' argument. Somebody in grad school is just as 'part-time' as a writer going in to write a book about it.

Lobsters, that makes no damn sense so take your false 'man of the people' bullshit somewhere else.

The right wingers are in the woodwork

I'm pretty sure that it was Richie Sambora who feathered his pubes.

OK—I'm sold.

What's the big deal?
That picture is funny. David Cross likes to do funny stuff. It's not like he's Thomas Pynchon or something. (Although that would also be funny).

6 months of guitar
How much time elapsed between the band begining and this album? I find it highly doubtful that someone who picked up the guitar six months prior is capable of producing anything interesting—see for example: the breeders; a lot of punk bands; those guys who played in 'battle of the bands' when you…

I am writing a screenplay about lovers who murder each other….they call me Mr. Bitterness.

Hey Tex, y0u wanna help me with a strategem?

Crossroads dammit!
Playing against the devil at the end is clearly a nod to Robert Johnson shenanigans—that's where the joke lies, not in a reference to the Simpsons game. Little heads up to help once you get the copy editing down.

Whenever someone uses the above phrase to explain why they are a dick I often think: "This person is a dick."

Thank you, Pope Benedict, for the gift of laughter.

You liked Donnie Darko before it was cool? No wonder you write for the AV club!

Can't tell if you're ignorant or racist. The first response is obviously right—he's telling sharpton to focus on something important instead of cuss words. Not being able to figure that out might just be ignorant.
