I can't enjoy "Entertainment" anymore
I once got into a conversation with an old Brit jazzbo who'd been big into punk back in the day. He saw Gang of Four before they released "Entertainment" and said the record was a huge disappointment for him; the drums sounded like cardboard, the bass was neutered and guitar

Not that great live
I gave these guy's first album a try and dug it alright, but was pretty disappointed by their live show. All the guys were real good musicians, but after a couple of songs I decided that I'd grown out of the phase where I could stand for 40 minutes watching dudes play vaguely melodic fuzz.

Destroyed?
Excuse me, I must retire to my castle in the Hollywood Hills. The earth is keening for another hot slab of my bummer beats and I'm ready to serve it up.

Screaming common-law redneck couples, dumb-ass loitering drug dealers and miserable truckers who aren't that picky about tranny blowjobs: America's true renewable resources.

Finally!
I'll get to listen to all those hard to find Floyd releases.

Do you people realize there's a top 40 R&B slowjam where the singer unironically and in a straight-up-romancing way tells a girl to get naked and fuck him while he films it? That to me is waaaaaaaaaay more fucked up than a punk kid rapping about rape to piss some people off. Lets have some priorities here!!

Nerdist Fallon: Lame
I know Chris Hardwick's M.O. is unadulterated enthusiasm, but this just rubbed me the wrong way. Possibly due to lack of Jonah Ray and Matt Mira, but this is way to much of a Jimmy Fallon lovefest with not much in the way of jokes/anything interesting for non-Late Night with Jimmy Fallon fans.

The laws of AV club are coming unhinged! We're being pulled to a singularity run for your lives!!!

In episode 6
Ice-T wants some apple juice, but all there is is alize. Why is there so much alize? Ice-T goes looking for Coco to see if she knows where the apple juice is… (Tuba and xylophone play in the background)

Whoa!! Is that THE Kurt Loder?

You're missing the real story here:
When did By the Grace of God get back together??

Oops
Never did like them.

Is a lazier Sid Dithers.

I liked the idea of the Kills more than I liked their music. In their their interview with Punk Planet, years and years ago, they talked about how they would use old telephone receivers as microphones and record with their amps in trashcans. I thought, now THIS is a band I need to hear, but unforunately, all I got was

I loved this week's CDR, and I normally don't like James Adomian. His characters are well-done and occasionally great, but mostly boring but I thought his Alan Rickman was hilarious especially the crazy shift at the end of the show. It helped that Scott & Scott were both great supporting players, but this last week

Still no Drew
Literally every character in this show makes at least a cameo appearance in nearly every episode EXCEPT Sarah's other kid. He's gotten, at best an episode worth of story for himself and even then it was more about his dead/John Corbett than him. What's the deal? Child Labor laws? Bad acting? Or did they

I lol'ed pretty hard…
Just reading the title. What's this about?

I heard about him from WTF too, that story about his wife was brutal but also stunningly beautiful. I listened to it with my girlfriend and we both started crying and then fucking.

Funny that that same girl played a slutty high schooler on the Party Down premiere

Fuck this shit
When are you guys going to do the new Dirtbombs? How about this: Its a techno cover album. Its pretty good. B+
