Best firstie I've ever seen. Still gonna hang you off a twelve story building out this motherfucker by your fuckin' dick.

Is he part of the Saline Sovolution?

"…gently."

Jay-Z raps about owning all kinds of shit now. Really. That's like 2/3 of his output since he came back from "retirement." M.I.A. rap/sings about revolution and terrorism. Now, M.I.A. has never been a revolutionary or a terrorist. But Jay-Z has never been a crime lord, and nobody held that against him when he…

I think she's actually one of Tim Burton's erotic action figures come to life.

At This Rate,
…we'll be seeing the Sex and the City 2 reboot by next fall!

Two men having anal sex while impersonating the Golden Girls is less gay than that the hobbit hugging.

But most of the ones who got the label- No Age, Abe Vigoda, etc.- sound nothing like…

My big posts are generally about themes, rather than attempts to recap what happened. There's no reason for me to go on about what everyone can agree happened (or spend 14 paragraphs trying to articulate my emotional reaction to Vincent lying down beside Jack). LOST was a show that addressed big themes. The dubious…

As far as I'm concerned, Jacob was an ass, and the show more or less confirmed that. He created Smokey. He crashed the plane. Jack took the job to clean up Jacob's ginormous mess. The Sideways was part of Jack's ongoing attempt to free his friends from what Jacob inflicted. He gave Hurley the job just so that Hurley…

Agreed on Four Tet, Gil Scott-Heron, and Crystal Castles. Haven't heard the rest.

The Winter of Mixed Drinks is also fantastic. Just buy all the records I just listed.

Definitely poppier and more Bowie-esque. But remember what this band can do while being poppy (and 80s): "Haiti" and "Keep the Car Running." Besides, the Bowie influence was always evident in their music.
