So we're moving from rural New Zealand to Sydney, Australia? Seems like that will remove a lot of the charm and visual splendor from the show.

*slow clap*

Desperado is my go-to choice on this topic. Steve Buscemi's opening tale is so well-done that nothing else in the movie quite lives up to it.

SST has the rights and SST don't re-master or re-release anything. But they do keep everything in print.

I think you may be.

I will stand by Badly Drawn Boy's second proper album Have You Fed the Fish? as being close to Bewilderbeast in quality and definitely worth keeping. But man, he is a classic example of a great first album followed by a long downward slide.

Vulnicura is probably my favorite Björk album since Homogenic. But it's not one I listen to very often, because it's pretty harrowing.

Exactly.

I was amused that she referenced "The recent call for a gay Elsa in Frozen 2" without mentioning that it was her own piece she was linking to.

This was a very good list. It could use a couple more songs from Everything Will Be Alright in the End and it's notable that "Dope Nose" and "Slob", two of my Maladroit faves, aren't here. But you're dead-on about the "Keep Fishin'" single and hit most of the high points from their decade in the wasteland (Make Believe…

Weezer fans hate "Beverly Hills" because it's either a) one of the most disingenuous songs the band ever wrote, or b) one of the most ridiculously whiny. Depending on how seriously you take his sentiments.

Hey, Brill Bruisers rocks!

I think the difference is that, starting with the Red album, it was Rivers and the band advancing the narrative that THIS was the record where they recapture what they had in the 90's. Rivers has kept saying that, but it wasn't until EWBAITE that most of the fanbase started to agree with him.

Yup. I'd personally give the title of Worst Weezer Single to "Hash Pipe", but "Beverly Hills" is 1A on that list.

Well, to me, those are three very different albums. Skeletal Lamping features Barnes burning through three or four albums worth of great hooks and failing to write actual songs around them (With the notable exception of "An Eluardian Instance"), instead just jumping straight to the next hook.

My two big issues with this movie are not related to anything Rabin had to say, but really bothered me.

Lousy with Sylvanbriar is alright, but I don't love it. I put it about on par with False Priest. It's certainly better than Skeletal Lamping or Paralytic Stalks.

I've kept up with Of Montreal over the years, even though Barnes' musical wanderings have gotten further and further away from the intensely hook-based indie-dance I loved on The Sunlandic Twins and Hissing Fauna.

Dammit, that's right. :(

Kristen Bell is free! Not that this constrained her as much as her fellow free actor, Nathan Fillion. But still, this is great news.
