Michael_ you do realize this is 2013 right? The music business is not exactly in the same state that MBV left it 22 years ago.... Times have changed. Not to say that downloading music without paying for it is something everyone should do, but let's face it, you can't stop people from doing what they want to do. Do you really want to be the internet-police or something? Look, most people here like myself are fans and I can guarantee you that the majority if not, all of us will be ordering this on Vinyl and have it tucked away where nobody can touch it. THAT'S HOW MUCH WE LOVE THIS BAND. Otherwise, i don't think any of us would be here tonight.
Well Kevin Shields is either balling his eyes out about this or pissing his pants from laughing way too much about this right about now. Not sure which.
You all can down-vote me all you want but as a Radiohead fan, I truly hope Jonny's guitar is still in one piece. Yes, I said it.

I'm sure Sir Trent Reznor is writing a complaint letter about Bowie's Low not being # 1.
This feature points out just how a band like the Beatles were able to release 11 solid albums in under 10 years. But I'm sure that's another feature all in itself.

I was one of those fans who got into REM by listening to Monster, Automatic For The People and New Adventures In Hi-Fi as a 90s teenager. It wasn't until later that I discovered their classic back catalogue (IRS years). REM always remained true with each release, Reveal and Collapse Into Now are underrated REM albums. Can't wait to hear Stipe's solo LP which I'm sure is inevitable. Happy trails REM... happy trails.
MTV's golden years were between 1990 and 1999. We were lucky to have witnessed rock n roll's last dying breath with 'grunge'. Which actually was right before the internet came along and wiped it all away. MTV should stop calling itself "Music Television". It's an insult to all true music fans around the planet.
Is it me or is everyone jumping on the Bon Iver bandwagon all of the sudden? Come on! give it some time, let the album sink in!! It was just released today!
It all reminds me of last december when everyone named Kanye West's MBDTF the best album of the year only weeks after it's release. SHEEESH! !!
It's hard for me to pick my top best Bob Dylan songs so I'll just let my last.fm do it for me....
