This is all the more exciting because the sooner The Smile album cycle runs its course, the sooner their other side project can shake off the rust and get it going again. (That band photo like 3 stages of life of the same person.)
Great. I'm sure all the nominees will just stay home and not go out.
Yeah, sorry for the actual data. I read the content of a story not just the headline. You might try it sometime.
It's always a fine line for artist drifting into self parody and just remaining in your zone (the poem zone, if you will). That line is even more fuzzy for someone as self referential and ironic as FJM. Which is a long way to say that this new one is both great and also tad disappointing for its lack of surprises.
2.5% of 80,000 attendees tested positive. Entire territory positivity rate is around 30%. Makes sense.
New records fade away prematurely all the time. Either from the culture or the charts. It's more notable when there's a lot of hype behind a release. This one even had an IMAX movie behind it. Kasey Musgraves' record is another one. Killers Pressure Machine as well. We'll have to just disagree if you don't think she's going for shock. But it's absolutely an album art trend of increased stakes of what the artist will reveal.
I mean, are people really listening to this record now? Once it was clear the Reznor contribution wasn't all that interesting, it rightfully faded. And the artwork--if you rely on shock, you naturally create a short expiration date once the shock fades.
I only watch classic Match Game reruns. Jeopardy should have ended with Trebek. Who really wants to watch Blossom or that annoying Twitter guy as hosts.
This show's still on? Huh
What is the soonest that you can say "well, this didn't age well"?
Good one - he's really about it though and it's already been done
I know when I think "healing" music I think of this guy
Get ready for sparse covers of "Life on Mars" and "Space Oddity" to soundtrack sci-fi flick trailers forever. But really who wants to hear Bowie songs covered by other people?
This is just bonkers. You've got to give her credit--she knows who she is, she commits to the bit, she's all in. If in Vegas, I would get out of my mind and watch the hell out of this thing.
Here for Sufjan to shit on whatever he wants out of pop culture if that is what it takes for his undeniable genius. He can stuff more ideas in a single 11 minute song than others' careers, so he's welcome to be a little bitch now and then.
He's Mr. Hollywood now, music is just another hobby this dilettante now does. And when he does it's all about co-writes, producers and guest stars. Better to focus on, say, new Arctic Monkeys music ahead instead. A true band yet to let us down, still pushing things forward musically and lyrically.
Not bad for a one-day quickie production. Love his modesty to admit it's not good enough for an album - his standards are high. This guy's had quite the 2021 - 2 full lengths and a collab album - and all excellent.
This was good fun. Tim and Eric vibes obvs. Band sounded great, as always, locked in even in a hermetic studio situation. New band members fit right in and James dropped some lbs, looking good. Anyone catch that ridiculous hit piece on CoS trying to smear their residency as a superspreader event after talking to "over a dozen" attendees (of a 2000 capacity room that ran 17 nights before being shut down).
This doesn't sound like all that terrible or even very surprising news. Retiring the name at this point just makes sense. Dust it off in the future only in the unlikely event of a true reunion.
Let's see him call R. Sakamoto a capitalist a-hole to his face https://twitter.com/ryuichisakamoto/status/1473065850831835142
Beautiful. Pretty telling that he's returned to his Us vs Them theme at this time. "Face using fear try to keep to keep control and we are together more than you will know".... "Soldiers on our backs we won't get caught by them"... He sees what's going on.
Feels a little like Kacey Musgraves saying her new one was influenced by like Bill Withers and Weezer and then it just ended up being a subpar Kacey album (wild how quickly that record disappeared)
Yep, all over again, a year later. Even with the vaxx in effect AND the knowledge that omicron is a weak variant. But media machine is already in hyperdrive for this latest (hopefully last) push.
LCD did not cancel, the venue and promoter did. We've learned nothing if we're still using positive tests to make decisions, particularly in vaxxed, asympomatic people, nearly 2 years later.
People want it both ways: they want to reveal in the "authenticity", the keeping it "real", but when it leads to the worst outcome, they don't want to hear it, lest they acknowledge they are part of the problem. Just look at these video clips. Even the memorial photo Weiss posted of him has him surrounded by cough syrup bottles. Stop legitimizing this lifestyle.
Close. There is only one side: Power. The "R" and "D" differences are there to maintain division and the illusion of democracy.
Or, just maybe leaking this story is the conspiracy. You have no way of knowing for sure either way.
All those "DONDA isn't that bad!" types need to look themselves in the mirror for supporting this assclown (Grammys included). Also corps like Amazon and Apple that get into bed with him. You would think interfering with democracy carries as much a cancellation penalty as saying something stupid.
It must be hard for Paul to carry on with the knowledge that he peaked a decade ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=maAFcEU6atk
True. It's just too bad it's in service of yet more Beatles related product being churned out endlessly
We can't be sure of George's current pronouns in the afterlife, so best to play it safe and avoid using "his".
You accidentally left out the "officers claimed" qualification to this assertion. I would not have guessed this site as unquestioning cop supporters. But anything for a cheap headline I guess.
I know, makes no sense right. That way I can watch it offline and untracked. Feels like a tiny victory to stick it to them on that (while I order daily deliveries).
There really is no getting around making deals with the devil in the current landscape, is there. I say that as a of everyone involved with this (and a Prime subscriber myself). Looking forward to a downloading a video rip of this.
Those pants should help have Hoover freed any day now. It's clear this whole "Free Larry Hoover" thing is little more than signaling and a handy shield against any potential dredging up of his red hat Trump love era. He thinks he can write off cozying up to DJT as a prison reform effort. Either way there is zero chance of him being released so it is just theater.
