Anyone who has ever seen this band live would never say something this ignorant. I saw them in a bar with about 20 people before they took off and out of the hundreds of concerts I've been to in my life, it might be the best I've ever seen. Comparing Rage to the doucher rock of 311 is about as asinine a statement as

I know this is the 20th anniversary of this album but no one I knew into music saw this album as more than a step down from "Badmotorfinger". What annoys me as a fan is the fact that so many people have never heard or have put any time into listening to the album that obviously set up the success of "Superunknown".

"The Leftovers" is lame. The same site that said "Justified" jumped the shark this season recommended this pay cable version of "Under The Dome". F*ckin" terrible.

"Fargo" is the clear winner. Considering how weak the ending was for "True Detective" and looking back, all the violence and sex was just exploitive with no real point. I do have a problem with Tolman. She may be likable to some, but she had no business being in the show with these super heavy weight actors. Other

Yeah this album/EP is brilliant. I think it's also where Jerry kind of stepped up and put more of his spin on things. I loved "Sap" so when I heard there was going to be another release similar, I was pretty excited. Unfortunately they never got better than this afterward. Like you stated in the article, the self

Just because you're tired of hearing a song and a million hacks have ruined it for you doesn't mean that it's not great. Cohen wrote the lyrics, give him credit for that, but his vocals on this song are not solid. The fact that Buckley passed away probably enhances the "holiness" of it all. Normal people should be

What a terrible list. The worst I've seen. Congrats on putting Paramore & Fall Out Boy before MBV. Jeez. And also for being cliche' as hell and putting Kanye at the top.

It's a shame NBC is so inept and have no idea they could have a modest hit on their hands if they moved the time slot(just like "Parks & Rec"). I think this shows moves at a much smoother pace than "Sleepy Hollow" and is just more entertaining overall. It definitely has a more cinematic appeal. The acting is much

Nice article. I met the Scorps back in the day and they were very nice guys. Not a pretentious one in the group. Most bands from that era were pretty arrogant. I do think the success of "Wind Of Change" made them rethink their approach to writing songs. Which lyrically wouldn't have been a bad thing(granted they

This guy doesn't write anything. He surrounds himself with talented people or buys songs from real songwriters like Madonna. Despite a somewhat low key interview with Kimmel, he still comes out with 30 people on stage(including background singers) and has to have prerecorded tracks. With all the hype that Sony pays

No one has ever been more of a kiss-ass bandwagon jumper than Brian Warner. What about that great movie career that was supposed to happen?

I know what Barlow means by hearing certain loops in songs that really make you feel kind of sick. He's definitely right about this tune. Kortchmar has written some good songs with Henley and Jackson Browne though. I think if you listen to or happen to hear modern radio at all, you're going to get sick of Henley's

"Is This Desire?" is far from being lackluster. It's not as good as "To Bring You My Love", but it definitely belongs with it in some way. "Stories From The City"(even though it won a bunch of awards) was a big disappointment compared to those two albums. Although "This Is Love" is one of her best and most accessible

I saw it this morning and I thought it was very intriguing. It's not for everyone but certain aspects make it better than "Drive". 

Destroying music creditability one pathetic album at a time. I'm sure the AV Club will give it a glowing review like they do for everything him and Kanye crap out. 

Another horsesh*t infomercial review. Sad to see Pitchfork isn't the only one's on Universal's payroll.

Some of the skits Oliver and others have done on the show the last couple of years have been excruciatingly bad, but I was pleasantly surprised by his hosting duties this week. He seems to have brought an energy to the stories that just seems funnier than Stewart's kind of slow, bitter take on things. I think he

I'm not going to forget your stupid Jane's Addiction review a while back but you're right on this one. Although Brad Wilk doesn't deserve all your scorn. He's become pretty much one of Rubin's go to session guys now. BTW… The original group did a couple of songs on that live album from '98. Ward played drums on that

Like I said in previous posts, this album is weak. Definitely the worst overall despite the good reviews. Still, Josh at his most uninspired is better than almost everyone else putting out music in this genre, and the tour will be great. Unfortunately, after the first week, this album will disappear and all the new

The Kyuss "Blues For The Red Sun" is really where I did start. And it's definitely their best. As far as QOTSA go, the first 2 albums are way better than the rest of their catalog. "SFTD" has a couple of great songs on it, but it's not as consistent to me. The other albums are also better than almost everything else
