Only problem with Bandcamp as a typical consumer is that it is not as easy to use as iTunes or Spotify, however I do like the model that they have in place.

My system for the past few years has been essentially to stream albums, get free downloads that are offered on sites like this one, spotify (since last year). If I really like the album I go ahead and buy it. If there are only a couple of songs that I like, I don't bother with buying the whole thing. I probably own 100 CDs most of them purchased within the last few years, and many of them used (which I'm not even sure the artists get paid for used CDs, [pretty sure they don't]). Essentially if services like spotify don't make enough money to please artists, labels, etc. Then I have no problem with adding more ads if it means I have a chance to listen to an album before I go out and shell out money for it.

After considering some great songs that are mentioned quite a lot in this board I will go ahead and cast my vote for Beach House – Lazuii

I just go to the Prosthetic Body Parts Costco and load up my truck for Halloween. But if you're willing to get me some good deals on fake heads I'm all for it

You all have no idea how happy I am that Chairlift is so high up. I am in love with that album and was beginning to think that I was crazy/insane that I have that album in the top 3 as well. Good to see I'm not the only crazy one

I've been complaining about this issue for a while as well. Stereogum seems to use the downvote too much, almost to the point where it loses its power, compared to Videogum where it is only reserved for certain occasions. On that note I am in no way implying that Andrew's comment was appropriate much less funny, but 107 downvotes??? Just downvote it enough so that it's hidden and not too much so that's not in the comments of the week section next Friday

3 days after you I'm just finding out about this whole fiasco. Ahhhh I feel so left out. I have gone ahead and taken the trouble of upvoting and downvoting where appropriate, just so that I don't feel so alone

Same goes for Lollapalooza these past few years that I've been there. It seems that larger festivals are aiming more towards the EDM crowd and it can attract some crowds that are younger, and more inexperienced at how to behave at shows.

I'm confused . Do I start reading the tweets from the top to the bottom, or from the bottom to the top? Does it even matter?

Well I certainly hope that Indianapolis show doesn't sell out too fast. I'm going to need a bit of time for my wallet to recover. I'll be really sad if I miss out on tickets

Was very fortunate to meet them at an in-store performance last year. Really great guys. Blew my mind when I also realized they (or at least only one of them) is also from the freecreditscore band on tv

Believe me, I learned to be condescending from him, I always got crap from him for listening to my "weird music" and not liking whatever was the flavor of the day. The problem with their music fanbase is the fact that it has little to do with music and more to do with the fact that it's popular.

Most of my problem with this whole "scene" has nothing to do with the music. I don't really care for Skrillex, et al, but I also don't hate it. My problem stems from some of their fanbase. Take for example the other day I saw that somebody was claiming "Skrillex INVENTED dubstep," or one of my friends who has the worst music taste in history was super excited that Avicci is playing at his campus. Come on. Usually it's a bad idea to judge music based on their audience, but I tend to make an exception for dubstep

What the FAAAAAAAAACK???? Anybody get a chance to listen to his interview on Sirius XMU last year? Craziest thing I ever heard, I think it might be up on youtube if you're interested. Feels like our generation's Syd Barret

I'm doing Pitchfork for the first time this year (although only one day) and from what I see here I am really interested in seeing Grimes and AraabMuzik. Really looking forward to the rest of the bill

Crap didn't mean that as a reply. Sorry, but I do agree with everything Ghost Wankerer said especially Drive and Melancholia being snubbed in favor of "Incredibly Loud'

So how did Hugo manage to get more awards an nominations than Goodfellas and Taxi Driver combined??? One of the things wrong with this year's awards that I felt passionately about. The rest of the awards I can sort of understand considering the weak nominations. At least The Help wasn't as successful as I feared it would be.

This is feeling like the Grammy's all over again. Waste of couple of hours that I'll end up feeling upset about after it's all over.
