It's CBS, though. So it could also be among the most watched shows on TV.
The fact that this article took two people to write is pretty weak. Were these guys a package deal?
so you can't put black paint on your face without it being called "blackface"? kind of unfair. It's all about context.
what about that new Die Antwoord vid?
and the star himself beat me to it
i love when someone is in the lowest and highest in the same week. both for gifs. lesson learned: Prince beats outdated/overused troll guy by 41 points
Jerry Minor...also successful in 2001
I remember that! such a great moment
I think the Serge Gainsbourg song you mean is "Cargo Culte".
I really like 'Adelma'. It reminds me of something from a Brian Eno ambient record. I guess I don't see the "70s classic rock" in "Speak In Rounds" though.
Considering there's already been two articles about this, there's not much more to say. I say, the rest of this comment section should be gifs. Maybe get Palmer or Albini photoshopped in there to stay somewhat on topic.
If she asks for something and then gets it, I don't see a problem.
I was trying to think of some kind of well-founded criticism/alternate order for this list but eh, it's not worth it. After all, it's Grizzly Bear...it's ALL good!
the interplay between dan and ed's voices in "What's Wrong" is especially great. i'll add the moment where Ed first enters the song as one of my favorite moments.
that was a perfectly executed mr. show reference. automatic upvote!
wait..why would you say it's awesome? ..oh....i get it.
ya know who deserves more money? chad sexton. that's who.
I don't think I'll be making any friends with this.. (in no order) over 1. In Rainbows 2. The Rise And Fall of Ziggy Stardust 3. Dark Side of the Moon 4. Tommy 5. The Joshua Tree under 1. Bossanova 2. Combat Rock 3. A Wizard, A True Star - Todd Rundgren (virtually unknown by a lot of people) 4. Diamond Dogs 5. First Impressions of Earth
i think the whole "downvoted self-promotion" comments really work to the commenters advantage in a way. the more downvotes they get, the more views they'll get due to being featured in the most reliably popular segment in Stereogum. (whether thats good press or not, i don't know really..) "If you don't like the promoter, don't be a downvoter!" -popular slogan i just made up
yikes! great game...too many! Devo in 1977, The Cars in 1979, Sly and the Family Stone in 1968, Talking Heads in any touring year
more of a David and Goliath story
Everyone has a friend who dismisses them as a Joy Division ripoff (including me). But as I became a bigger Joy Division fan, I realized there are very few concrete similarities. The voice? yes. for sure. Other than that...they're "dark" sounding? Carlos D wears his bass at thigh-level? Honestly, there are very few Interpol songs that even sound similar to Joy Division.
The Pixies have been doing the same thing, and I think it's fine. I would otherwise never get to see a great live band like them because I was born shortly before Surfer Rosa came out. I'm not too upset that they haven't rushed to the studio to put out a new album either (even though it would be pretty cool!). Perhaps some artists shouldn't push their 1990s luck (nudge nudge, Billy). Corgan obviously thinks there's something wrong with earning money by doing something you/your fans enjoy.
as someone who lives in the twin cities, these guys are waaaayyyyy overrated and generally useless
upvote if you caught the 1/2 second of "Soultaker"
thats a fair point. Though i would do the same for "B.L.U.R.E.M.I". But then again I'd probably lose control of the car as well
I feel like most of these songs could fall under Blur's most underrated...maybe? But "He thought of cars"? I dunno bout you guys, but i usually turn off The Great Escape after "The Universal".
I was totally with you until Girls & Boys. I've always thought that's one of the worst Blur songs, even if it is tongue-in-cheek.
which is obviously a terrible reason to do anything
is it wheelchair accessible? (i figure i don't have to post picture anymore)
two things: 1. because of the price, i feel that everyone there will be at least 35. 2. In relation to Michael_'s comment, anyone hear what happened to soundtown fest? http://www.soundtownfest.com/
dave foley = automatic #1
how did passion pit get on there? People still like them?
Calvin defending the felines, how appropriate!
And Billy Corgan DOESN'T play with rawness and emotion?
