I grew up and lived in Michigan for a long, long time. I've lived in Houston for the past decade and it still makes me sad that I haven't gotten to see Sloan play live since I moved. I used to see them almost every year.

89X was (still is) a Windsor-based station, but because it serves a border market, it has a reduced CanCon percentage.

Another small domino falls as Peak TV ever so slightly passes its crest.

Somebody at Legendary was a big enough Gravity Falls fan to say, "He made Ducktective work in several 30-second increments, he can damn well make this Detective Pikachu thing work over 90 minutes!"

Just ask Herman Cain!

His writing partner Nat Faxon is a recognizable name, even if he didn't play the 8th most popular character on a cult sitcom.

I never owned a Sugar Ray album, but I liked them well enough, particularly in the early days. I saw them on the third year of Warped Tour, playing a tiny stage tucked into a corner of the concourse at Detroit's outdoor amphitheater. It was a couple months after "Fly" took off and this small space was packed wall to…

This is my favorite Of Montreal album since at least False Priest, and possibly since Hissing Fauna. It feels like Barnes has reached some sort of equilibrium after nearly a decade of album-length digressions.

"It's Different for Girls" is the song that made me go, "Kevin Barnes is finally making songs that sound like my favorite era of Of Montreal again! Hooray!!"

Don't you dare mess with my mean machine! It's long and slick and olive green!

Meanwhile, Of Montreal released their 14th album today and they've only been around since the mid-90's! You're a slacker, Cohen!

Just Taylor? What happened to Neveldine?

Power Stone.

Sadly, I'm 100% with Chappell on this one. I enthusiastically enjoyed the first one, and to a lesser degree the second, and tolerated the third. But The 4th Awakens was both incomprehensible and joyless. The franchise's entertainment value was already dubious, but this is the point where even I can't watch anymore.

The Descendents are correct to stay as far away from SST as possible these days; not that SST would even be equipped to produce, promote, and release a new album at this point. SST and Greg Ginn are holding nearly every record on their label hostage. They don't have the interest and/or budget to give their surfeit of…

I came this close to dropping Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur after the first five issues. I was kind of bored with it, and so were my wife and 10-year old daughter. Then the above-mentioned body-switching thing happened and it finally piqued my interest. A slow-moving book that I can also read in roughly 2 minutes is…

Lemme find an exception to your rule:

Count me in, as an unabashed fan of both Wingard and the original movie.

The Blair Witch sequel was a super-meta thing where the first movie was indeed fiction but inspired a cottage tourism industry in Burkettsville for people who wanted to see the forest. Then bad supernatural things start to happen. But that was so far off to the side of what the first movie was that a direct sequel can…

Saw 3 is far and away my favorite of that franchise.
