The little 90 second quieter songs that are in between the more bombastic, epic radio rock songs on that album really make the whole album flow together perfectly.

He had a real resurgence for quite a few years in the 2000s as a drummer, between Tenacious D, Songs for the Deaf and the self-titled Killing Joke shortly thereafter, not to mention the Probot project, and Nine Inch Nails' With Teeth, Grohl's drums were everywhere. http://en.wikipedia.org/wik…
I remember a lot of critics saying "Let It Die" was Dave telling off Courtney Love. While I can see why people would interpret it that way, I don't think Grohl ever intimated it was about anyone in particular, so it was probably just another case of the media being full of shit.
I'd say "Hey, Johnny Park!" from this album is the best song they ever wrote.
No, we don't. Grohl's lower octave vocals on the chorus just do not do it for me on that version. It's still a beautiful song, but the rocking album version is far superior.
Bob Dylan also singled the song out backstage to Grohl one time as one of his personal favorites. That's pretty high praise.
SNL can't win either way. The EW readers of the world complain when The National or Sleigh Bells are on the show (because "nobody listens to them/nobody has ever heard of them!") but the AVClub readers of the world complain when they go to the Top 40 well. In conclusion, time for Metallica to make their second-ever…
That lodge band sketch was the hardest i'd laughed at Kenan in a long time. The "tree top on top of the Christmas… TREEE!" or however the lyrics went, every time he finished I was cracking up.
She was really giving me an Aubrey Plaza-in-Funny People vibe.
My dad was very much in that Murray mold. If he was reading a book or watching his football game, you couldn't get many words out of him. From what my mom tells me, his dad was much worse. At least my dad was pleasant when you did have his attention. My grandfather? Not so much. I love this show.
Erica witnessing the craziness of both storylines was great. Her first "When did you even write that?" killed me, and the excitement with which she needed to see Murray crying, I loved it.
I'm the type of guy who gets mad when a movie uses an anachronistic song. For example, The Perks of Being a Wallflower takes place in 1990, I believe. Yet when they attend a party, "Low" by Cracker, which was released in 1993, is playing on the stereo at the party. This irked me, even though the song fit that scene…
Nope, that's Alex.
1. Yes, I thought this same thing. I thought she wanted to insert herself into the story, and I think she had a crush on Adnan and wrote some of the fakest-sounding letters I'd ever heard in my life.
I also feel like the implication in Homicide was that most of these crimes were perpetrated by blacks who were being tried in front of primarily black juries. I don't agree with your theory that they framed Adnan, but you are definitely right about the detectives in Homicide joking about how they hardly ever got…
"Acting" as in when he was on those police interview tapes and trial recordings from 15 years ago? The way Sarah described her encounter with Jay in 2014 certainly did not give off any sort of psychopathic vibe to me.
And why didn't Adnan try to call Hae at all? He purchases a cell phone (days before the crime occurs, oddly enough), she's the first person he calls. Would he really not try to reach out to her at all once he finds out she's missing?
You're right, 2011 did worse than 2010. However, SummerSlam's buys were on a downward trend going all the way back to 2008, with 2012 being the only increase (Lesnar being marketed as the main event and the star certainly helped). To blame Punk for 1 RAW's ratings, when Cena and the awful booking of the unnecessary…
Yeah that was a really poignant episode. I really look forward each week to the new episode, even if they're discussing companies I'm not too familiar with, whether it's PWG or New Japan, they are at least funny, knowledgeable guys who make listening fun.
Did they actually press her on that? I'm imagining it must have been some Hardwick-perfected softball question along the lines of, "After being on the air for SO LONG, which is FUCKING AMAZING, by the way, how does Seth keep the show so fresh and relevant and fucking FUNNY?"
