Also, *goddamn*, get fuckin' wrecked Papyrus. If any font deserved a devastating Iggy takedown, it's fucking Papyrus.

I mean, I'd want that, simply because I'd freak the fuck out, considering that kid must have some hella future-vision to predict the existence of Death Grips back in '03.

Yeah, this is the weakest of the bunch and it's still a very serviceable rocker that would probably be the high point of some of their other mid-career albums.

I only saw them once, but it was them and the Flaming Lips co-headlining at Jones Beach. It was maybe the best show of my life, no joke. It was weird as fuck, even though it was torretial fucking downpouring the whole time, both bands came out at the same time and played a cover of Sabbath's "Sweet Leaf" as a giant…

I'd give "Everything Will Be Alright In the End" a listen if you've got any soft spot left in your heart for them. It was a really good record, without caveats. The new record is shaping up to be pretty good too, the song above is the weakest of the 5 dropped so far, and even this is just decent, not actually bad.

It did, it's called MoviePass, and I've got it. It's a pretty sweet deal, honestly, for the $45 it costs. There are some restrictions: You can only see one movie per day, you can't see the same movie more than one (everything's linked to a card they send you), and no 3D. To me that first one is kinda a non issue. Also…

I'd go a step further, and say that I consider both "Cloud Atlas" AND "Speed Racer" to be amongst my favorite movies of all time, full stop. Make of that what you will.

I wasn't trying to judge the narrative (I'd actually very much like to see the whole thing at some point, I think it's neat that something with so wonky a premise is doing so damn well. Unfortunately, I'm not much in a position to be buying Broadway tickets right now). I was just trying to get a grasp of the sonics of…

Oh yeah, don't get me wrong, "Hamilton"'s success isn't a bad thing in my eyes at all — especially since it's such a wonky and original premise, and what seems to be a fun and well written set of tunes. And especially with the way Broadway currently is, with nearly everything either being run by Disney, based on some…

I too am annoyed by people liking "Hamilton" but probably for different reasons… I haven't listened to the whole Cast Recording, but sampled a bit. What I heard was fairly good, but also mostly sounded like your standard, well-written poppy Broadway musical (with some hip-hop leanings as decoration).

It's funny, All Stars 1 was my first season of RPDR (my roommate rightly thought that the less-of-a-commitment number of episodes would help get on board more willingly), and I wound up loving it so much, I went back and watched other seasons. It's always weird for me to see the hate it gets all the time, since I have…

OH MAN. BtMI!'s Vacation is one of my favorite rock albums of the past few years, and I literally had no idea this track existed, so thanks for that! Circumstances in my life have made it so that album (and Rosenstock's solo record) have been if fairly heavy rotation for the past few months, in this track's another…

My favorite shot has to be that lingering aerial one of the desert with just the shadow of the airplane dwarfed by it's expanse… Such a fantastic image.

They're rioting at a college level!

Yeah, I mean, in this particular case, I'd also have to assume that FX isn't really looking to rock the Louis CK boat by canceling a show he co-created/produces. They've got a good thing going with him (plus, they might be waiting to see how it fares come awards time too).

I can't decide if it's scary/sad that this represents an exact cross-section of my interests. All I know is I will definitely be watching.

Not really, it seems. As I mentioned above, she recorded a whole album with the Flaming Lips and it's been shelved indefinitely in relation to the case. As far as I understand, since it was collaborative, the group would have been billed as "Lip$ha," and that hasn't seemed to make a difference.

She's actually quite a good singer/musician when she drops the whole glittered out hot mess act (or subverts it). For instance, this absolutely gorgeous cover of Dylan's "Don't Think Twice" (https://www.youtube.com/wat… and this psycho apocalyptic freakout she wrote/performed with the Flaming Lips and Biz Markie (https…

For what it's worth, Kesha and the Flaming Lips reportedly (according to Wayne Coyne) recorded a full album of collaborative self-produced/written material, that has been shelved indefinitely due to some combination of the legal issues going on here/Kesha's own professed fear of retribution at the hands of Dr. Luke.…

You could easily call it his best album… But I might be the only one that comes easy too. "Carrie and Lowell" is a damn close second though.
