Listening to Cerulean Salt right now and will listen to other one right after. I'll let you know where I come down on the issue.

I have not! I tried searching for it but all the links say the video is private. I think CBS wants you to like go to their site and watch the full episode. They are the worst!

That's awesome! I guess I'll be seeing your friend play in May!

That probably has something to do with it. Totally agree about Your Best American Girl. I have to bite my tongue to keep from belting out the chorus like an idiot when I listen to it at work. In the car I totally just let loose tho.

Yes yes yes to Courtney, Angel, tune-yards, and Purity Ring. Need to listen to the others!

You should! I mean, I saw Angel Olsen on your list. Mitski often draws comparisons to her, somewhat unfairly as she's very far from a facsimile or derivative of, but I do think there's a reason the comparison gets made. I think liking one means a very strong likelihood of liking the other.

I guess I need to listen to them!

Also this one:

No doubt. It's a really good EP. I saw your other post with your festival lineup and started listening to Mannequin Pussy this AM. Really good!

Just listened to their EP. Sounds good. The last two tracks were the best I thought, though Edge of Town was really good.

Been listening to some favorites from the last decade including:

So is Skyler the top of the list for "likable" characters that you actually hate?

Isabelle Huppert's character in Elle.

Oh there have been studies by political scientists (I'm sorry I don't have a link) that have shown basically zero statistical correlation between voter preferences and voting by legislators on a wide range of issues over a period of like 3-4 decades, while at the same time there is near 100% alignment in voting with…

Making soup with bullion would be an expensive pun.

Yes! If there is a guy with a guitar out there strumming chords and languidly talk/singing about death, we need to know about it damn it!

The ACLU is great. I am without a doubt a civil libertarian and I fully support all of the work they do. But their focus and impact is narrow.

That just makes me more curious! I mean, not curious enough to actually listen, but kinda.

Tical?

So maybe the AV Club can start reviewing music again?
