Indeed, I think Die may be my personal favorite, though Vomit is ridiculously cool even if I thought I was listening to some unknown Pink Floyd track at the end.
I love her voice. I think partially why I like her album (granted not the best of 2011 by a good bit) is that for once it is something extremely popular that I can listen to and think, "this is quality music." Unlike Lady Gaga and Britney which, while I love both, I completely understand the indie blog music community hating upon them vigorously. --just why I like Adele, probably entirely unhelpful to you.
I guess I am a "Lamestreamer". I am not up to date on my street lingo so I am not sure what it means, but I am guessing it is along the lines of: someone who seeks out music they like, not keeping their knowledge to just the radio, and listens to music they like; that's me.
I'm still undecided on it. It's one thing to be a lazy fucker living in a shit hole eating McDonald's all day. It's quite another to be educated, only finding minimum wage work and trying to provide for a family. I feel like those at the Occupy Wall Street are comprised more of the latter group. They are right, there is a problem between government and corporation, regardless of their ignorance and shortsightedness as you say.
I suppose the assumption is that when reviewing, you talk about the music, which they clearly did; in part, by comparing to The Reminder, as it would seem is easy to do when you read the following sentence from this review, "Almost every track on Metals could fit comfortably onto The Reminder." What else is there to know if you've heard The Reminder?
I know this isn't related to this at all, but because I've got no cool friends, just wanted to say here: how about that Brandon review on P4K for a BNM given to Wolves in the Throne Room??? Holy shit. Never expected to see them give one to an atmospheric black metal band like WiiTR. Too cool.
I could go into this in depth as your question made me psychoanalyze myself; but, to put it simply: I wasn't sure what Use Your Illusion was and saw that it had a lot of comments so I figured I'd find out.
I'm thinking I rely way too much on P4K and Stereogum because I am wondering where all these people know about groups being left out. I suppose it would help if I went to shows.
As soon as Jessica left I knew Best Videos of the Week needed to come back. Anyway, Youth Lagoon has yet to disappoint. That video is...quite something. Well done Mr. Williams.
I thought I thumbed up a duchessofthomyorke comment this week. Must have been that one. I agreed in that I wish I was still in college listening to M83 on my campuses requisite "Quad".
I had a bit of difficulty following this, but it seemed to me that what Justin dislikes is MTV, and that they are solely about the money. Being only about the money to Mr. Vernon keeps one from doing actual work on earth--they do work, but there's no soul to it: just an empty shell.
I can't disagree. Major props to you Justin.
I probably read this wrong though.
Okay, I've listened to it now. It's still remarkably good; but, I'm just not feeling it like House of Balloons. HoB was like an immediate eargasm. Thursday is requiring more listens to have one.
