“Jeans of the Stone Age - Vintage Denim” might be a top 5 Bob’s Burgers opening storefront name.

I’ve listened a couple times now, and while there’s nothing that reaches the witty heights of “Pedestrian at Best” or “Elevator Operator”, it’s a solid album, and more interesting than the Kurt Vile collab for those who were turned off by that. “Charity” is a banger. Solid “B” in my book.
This episode was an “A” solely for Regular-Sized Rudy riding a giant bat in the credits.
Bloom is the peak of their “traditional” sound, and while Depression Cherry and Lucky Stars were solid, they proved they weren’t ever going to top it for me. That’s why I welcome the change of sound on this one. Favorite album so far this year.
This Arctic Monkeys album is gonna spawn a ton of insufferable thinkpieces that are equally pretentious as the album itself. This isn’t the album I wanted after 5 years, but I’m warming up to parts of it, especially the first half. These lyrics are pretty wild too.
I’d fallen pretty behind on both Brooklyn Nine-Nine and Last Man on Earth, but the former saddens me more. Such a delightful cast, and I’d never even been an Andy Samberg fan, but I loved him here.
I honestly had no idea Scary Movie 4 and 5 existed until reading this article.
I posted on another article that I was looking forward to AM&TW more than Infinity War all along, and after having seen Infinity War, I still feel the same despite enjoying the film. Not only does Ant-Man’s outright exclusion from Infinity War make me all the more curious, but the Avengers films and standalone Marvel…
I’m starting to lose hope. The Matt Berninger song is actually my favorite of the ones so far, but if it weren’t for him, I probably wouldn’t like it as much. Their first two albums were in play constantly in my car for months. Every new song so far is lyrically vapid in comparison, and I think it’s the choruses where…
The Beach House singles so far are phenomenal. They’re always consistently great, but they’ve never deviated far from their core sound until now, and it’s exciting. “Lemon Glow” might be my favorite song so far this year.
Yeah, this episode was sort of a litmus test for me to see if I was even interested in watching this season, since my interest has waned each year. It passed. Chuckled more than I did in most Dreamland episodes.
Oh, I feel the same way. I consider the original Ant-Man to be the most underrated MCU entry, and the last time I was underwhelmed by one of them was...Avengers 2. I get it, this is a fan service movie. But with individual entries like Civil War and Ragnarok featuring crossovers now more than ever, the actual Avengers…
I’m so conflicted about Archer nowadays, because they’re actively trying to innovate each season with crazy new settings to avoid stagnation (while a lesser show would just keep its wheels spinning), yet it’s gotten stagnant anyway. Dreamland was a really creative season. It just wasn’t...funny. Or that entertaining.

Since CEG getting that final season is more a comforted sigh of relief than a surprise, I say we get a head-start on badgering the CW to give Donna Lynne Champlin her own show.
I had no intent of listening to this album right away (kind of enjoyed Blunderbuss, didn’t care for Lazaretto one bit) until I read the Stereogum review. I’m excited to hear something this bad.
I actually like that song a lot more than the repetitive “Get Out”, but they really drowned out his voice on it, and I feel he’d sound way better in a live performance of it.
One of my most irritating festival experiences ever was The Decemberists at ACL, who played a few hours before The Weeknd. The kids waiting out all day for The Weeknd were SITTING DOWN the entire time, meaning there was this awkward 8-foot gap between the barricade and the people who were standing up. I hate ACL’s…
I seem to become a bigger fan of Mr. Branca the janitor every week (although I did have to Google his name just now), with his ambiguous origin that may or may not be bullshit, going from president of his home country to now hiding toilet paper in an American elementary school.
These two lead singles A) are fantastic, and B) give me hope that this album will be a bold new direction for them. Don’t get me wrong, Depression Cherry and Lucky Stars were both solid albums (“Space Song” is quintessential Beach House), but aside from “Sparks” and “Elegy to the Void” which went in a more sonically…
