The only place I've seen that "they only have one song, but…" quote is in the Dischord box set. Ian Mackaye says it of Lungfish.

The appeal is that it takes a whole bunch of ideas that people like, coats them in an amazingly potent, but undefined blob of nostalgic paint, adds in a couple great performances, then shits it all out in a big mess of cliffhangers, cheap scares, trainspotting, "cool" synthesizer music, emotional manipulation, 80's…

Explanation: it looked cool in Alien, it should look cool here, also, right?

"Of course, the gaps in the mythology have led to a slew of fan theories." The "gaps in mythology" are more likely due to the lack of any original ideas on the part of the Duffer brothers. This show is (entertaining, occasionally compelling) paint-by-numbers hack work.

Ohhhhhh I'm so mad that someone didn't prepare enough for a silly interview on a silly website!

I find Drive funny, too. I believe some of the things that make me laugh weren't intended to be funny, but I think there is more of a sense of humor in Refn's films than he is given credit for.

Dear man threatened by those he fears are cooler than him, this video is sourced from clips taped 16 years ago.

They never sounded like Hatebreed and they were around before Hatebreed.

And out of all those bands, Roby from Milemarker was the only female musician on stage!!

Jesus Christ Malcom McLaren was not even a punk! Give that shit to charity! Or use it to help out punk artists if you're interested in building something new. What a fuck.

Awww you have to keep individual Silver Jews mp3s on your phone!?!?!?

Circuit Des Yeux is the heaviest band playing this year.

Some of their later, more MOR efforts are way more "unlistenable" to me than the original Psychedelic Swamp.

Loved this movie. Stayed with me. Glad to read this analysis.

Growing up going to hardcore/punk/emo shows in Southern California in the mid-to-late 90's, one would often get "Aoki'ed": when you had a perfectly good spot in front of the band, and then right before the first song starts, Steve Aoki cuts through the crowd and stands directly in front of you, maybe even on your…

That means nothing. Mastering is not "song doctoring", it's simply balancing the loudness across the EQ spectrum.

Cousin Nate.

Do you really think a flip phone stalwart would make that big of a life choice to be "ironic"?

Not sure why so few outlets are reporting that Oberst has stated he will be donating any proceeds from the lawsuit to "charities for victims of violence against women" - seems like an important fact to follow "is seeking $1.2 million".

Drive Like Jehu most certainly did not put out an album in 1998.
