No album with "Your Party" on it can completely suck ass. Especially when it also contains Object, My Own Bare Hands, Woman and Man, and Friends (though I admit the EP version of Friends is far superior). It is wildly inconsistent and not exactly their best work overall, but there are a bunch of really great Ween…

Attempt?

"'Fantasy' is notable in that it’s not exactly a parody of pompous ’70s rock, but not exactly an homage, either."
That doesn't make it notable in the Ween canon at all. Most of their songs are like that with one genre or another, which is one of the many things that makes Ween awesome. Modell, if you like this song,…

Two that come to mind are Sonic Youth - Daydream Nation and Wu-Tang Clan - Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers). Also Metallica - Kill 'em All. Actually, I think literally any Metallica album before 1991 could probably qualify.

The vast majority of people can't tell the difference between a v0 320kbps mp3 and lossless, so don't sweat it. People love to wax poetic about FLAC, 24 bit, etc. But for most people on most equipment, there is essentially no appreciable difference; unless you've got great equipment and the ears of a seasoned audio…

In addition to the ethical issues, converting youtube clips to mp3s would also be a crime against audio quality.

There is no logical reason for them to be using WAV instead of FLAC. FLAC offers half the file size and identical audio quality. No wonder their website crashed.

OK, nobody will ever see this, but I just thought I'd note for posterity that I'm now about a third of the way through season 2 and very much enjoying the show. It's not my favorite show in the world or anything, but I'm definitely glad I stuck with it, and from what I've heard it hasn't even started to get really…

And the Sopranos. Too much talking, not enough shooting, I say!

HEEEE WIIIIIIILL KIIIISS THE PAAAAAAN!!!

Well, now I HAVE to hear that MIHH episode that got taken down. I don't suppose anyone here happened to download it?

Yeah, or the ones where these Villager pundits purported to render their expert opinions on why he totally wasn't funny, you guys—Richard Cohen's being the instant classic of the genre: http://www.washingtonpost.c…

She looked a bit like the "sparkle motion" lady from Donnie Darko, but I'm to lazy to IMDB it.

On a lesser show, yes. Not this one.

The part about Gene's wife (I'll just use your preferred terminology) isn't all that interesting and is mostly stupid drama, but, whatever.

At which point the normal thing would be weird, which would actually be normal, which would also be weird at the same time, and the universe would fold in on itself.

You don't happen to know that congressional candidate from the Atlas Shrugged review thread, do you?

It's also a transparent attempt to make make people forget they have a role in the process, like when media outlets pretend to fret about how much media coverage a story is getting.
