The Fragile RIGHT, I meant to say

Ha. *I* prefer The Fragile — I'm a sucker for his slow-building, eventually-exploding instrumentals, plus "The Big Come Down" is probably my favorite song on the entire album. Agreed, though, that "Fixed" is soft-torture music, only a few steps down from waterboarding.

Hmm.
I have always refused to listen to the Killers on some principle or other. Am I actually missing anything, I wonder?

So there
I really liked Things Falling Apart and thought it was a damn fine collection of remixes, though admittedly not as varied as those on Y34RZ3R0R3M1X3D. As far as music hipsters are concerned, maybe I'm one of those sometimes, or maybe just a plain snob turning his nose up at music that lots of people like,…
