I haven’t heard Rivers brag about hundreds of great songs in his catalog.

Prince is understandable because of fucking LotusFlower or whatever the shit, with 50 songs or something, but 10 =! a lot.

Wait, the Red Album only had ten songs. Most of them were terrible, but still, unless he’s counting Alone and the other B-Side releases, it shouldn’t count.

Son of a bitch, I just bought this off Amazon.

Alex: It’s called exaggeration.

I’d cap it at 100k.

Last time I checked, a mistrial does not mean innocence, it means incompetence on at least one party in the trial.

He put a gun in a woman’s mouth and pulled the trigger, he has been found guilty of said crime. Do not drag race into this, especially not considering the race of the President.

If it were Radiohead selling, I’d sell VITAL organs. I’d sell my damn liver, because after hanging out with Radiohead, everything else would suck in comparison; I wouldn’t have long to suffer.

Positive Rage is out, at least according to my local record store, who has it on their shelves (along with Mirior Noir…)

I didn’t dig Swoon nearly as much as Carnavas, but it’s still an extremely solid collection of songs, so I’ll be totally picking this one up (as well as scanning the local venues for any announcements).

(For mass-holes, Newbury Comics is carrying Swoon for 7.99 next week.)

Damn it, I get a blue screen of death when I try to download it! I think their website might be broken from such demand…

The thing I especially love about this song is the lines like “I love you- I mean, I, I’d love to get to know you.”

You know, being an awkward teenager and everything? Story of my life.

This reminds me that I need to steal my friend’s copy of Boys and Girls in America this weekend.

This song sounds like a more furious version of the non-singles of Carnavas. Me likey.

Yeah, my sister has Creep on her iPod after she played it on Rock Band too! She loves them!

They should have asked her what a Kid A is, and the ruse would be completely dismantled.

Simple answer: If you download it and love it, as it appears everyone does, buy a copy when it hits stores in May. If it’s Album Of The Decade, you’re going to want a copy for posterity’s sake anyway.

Or pretentiousness’s sake, depending on who you are.

April is going to be an expensive month for me, I already have two must-buys.

(The other is SSPU’s Swoon)

It’s the Harder Better Faster Stronger / Around The World mix from ALIVE 2007, I think.

I really wish Reckoner was emphasized over House Of Cards, one of IR’s weak points (in my opinion).

I guess it was all those people fucking to it.

Two Muse tickets at 38 dollars have cost me 104 dollars total after fees, including one for printing them out. Same with Trans-Siberian Orchestra (40 dollar tickets- 115 total), and back when I was a freshman in high school, Fall Out Boy (20 dollar tickets, 65 dollars total).

Despite will.i.am’s existence in this ad, I dug it. The whole concept of our generation doing the same things as last generation, I can get behind.

will.i.am is no Dylan, though.

Come on Lenin! You can do it! Come on Lenin! There’s nothing to it!

Just like fake rap by white people needs to stop, rappers thinking they can sing/rock needs to stop

I had been waiting for this, and while nothing can ever beat Bowie’s Heroes, TVOTR did a very respectable job

Well, now I’m going to Tivo it instead of skipping it completely.

My bet’s on Reeeeeeeeeeeeckonaaaaaaaaaaaaaah

You know, I think I’m just going to blind-buy this one. I’ve heard no Animal Collective ever, and my local record store is offering it for 6.99 on Tuesday.

I’m gonna wanna hear TVotR, FF, Beck and the YYY’s tracks.
