An AVC hipster d-bag doesn't know what sincerity means!

Meh

I keed, I keed! Why so sensitive? I thought AVC commenters were made of rusty nails and sulfuric acid.

I used to be disgusted
Good job, guys, though you should have been kinder to BLOOD AND CHOCOLATE and BRUTAL YOUTH. And "Hurry Down Doomsday" happens to be a great song, thank you very much.

And Tombstone. And Deadwood. And in Frailty, directed by and co-starring another underappreciated favorite of mine, Bill Paxton.

Yep, I was totally waiting for the asshole Lobsters comment. Glad we got it out of the way early.

"On The Hunt" rules!
On that we agree. My summer mixtape would have a lot more stoner hippie shit on it, though.

Who cares if he really loves Ambre? He came clean about his fake hair! That's the headline, man!

Your description of the Philly Fox team EXACTLY describes the team here in Milwaukee.

I dunno, James1. Are you saying Malkmus a closet STP fan? That whole album is loaded with songs talked about how how indie culture was becoming commodified, and STP (and Smashing Pumpkins) were usually lumped in as culprits of that phenomenon.

Whoa, awesome music puts you to sleep? You should see someone about that, my friend.

Josh is right, J. "Leave Them All Behind," man, "Leave Them All Behind."

When the apocalypse comes in May, will you finally rue your constant defense of the soul-destroying scourge that is David Archuleta?

I second the recommendation on The Troublemaker album. I also really like Shotgun Willie and Yesterday's Wine. Stardust is pretty great, too.

Actually…

Yuck
Jesus Christ, does David Archuleta need to be destroyed or what? He's a robo-cheeseball sent from the future by anti-American Idol extremists to ruin the show, and it's working. Mark my words: If that dude wins, his career will tank. He's lil' Taylor Hicks.
