Calm down grandpa.

AHHHHHH I CAN'T GET AN ORDER THROUGH ON THE BLEEP SITE WHYYYYYYYYYYYY

Especially when you look at what the other writers have been saying.  Standard thank you's and goodwill all around, then he posts that.  Yikes.

Uhhh…this doesn't sound good.

Anyone else seriously underwhelmed by that Daft Punk single?  Not that I had huge expectations to begin with, but after all that ridiculous hype…it's just a shitty house track with big-name guests.

C+ for Slumdog Millionaire?  Lol.

More importantly, they gave Cease To Begin an A-?  Seriously?

Post-rock is for try-hards.  I almost fell asleep watching these guys live.

I'm okay with this.  If it were any other band, this would be an obnoxious hype move.  But Boards of Canada fans are fucking insane.

Makes perfect sense.  If you go back and listen to Rather Ripped, at times it's almost blatantly about Thurston cheating on Kim.  There's a fucking song called "Sleepin' Around," and it's arguably not even the most obvious song on the album.

Rise Against the Me-chine!

"Tick Tick Boom"?  Really?  That's the Hives song you went with?

Holy shit.  I guess I should watch Veronica Mars now.  The market has clearly spoken.

Even at my most cynical moments post-Harmon, with all the sky-is-falling, darkest timeline doomsday predictions, never did I imagine it'd come down to a singing puppet episode.  That was worse than the lowest lows I ever thought this show could reach.

Metal Machine Music has this reputation for being a horrendous, almost disturbing album, and I guess if you're coming at it as a Lou Reed fan, then yeah, you're not gonna like it at all.  But as far as noise goes, it's incredible how tame it seems now.

Fast Five was actually pretty good.  Completely over-the-top, never took itself seriously, just a ridiculously fun action flick from beginning to end.  I'll probably end up seeing Fast Six next month.  Nothing wrong with well-made escapist Summer movies.

Pitchfork gave New Brigades a solid review, and they suddenly went from playing tiny clubs to playing festivals.

These guys are amazing live.  I lucked into covering one of their first gigs stateside, a low-key show at some dingy cafe in north Baltimore, before the Pitchfork review blew them up.  It was just a terrifying blur of dark, manic post-punk energy, incredibly intense, one of the best shows I've seen in a long time.…

Wow, I loved every second of that.  I thought it was an A- at worst.  It's like the opposite of my weekly reaction to the Community reviews.

xkcd stopped being funny a long time ago, but it's still good for random wikipedia ventures and odd projects like this.
