Oh he's still entirely poke-fun-at-able, while worthy of respect in his own way, and I think he's very aware he occupies this arena and owns it.

I ordered a Mark McGrath Cameo for a friend's birthday a couple months ago and it was genuinely funny and sweet and way longer than I was expecting. He got out his guitar and played her a song and just kind of talked about how weird these times are and how he's feeling and how he hopes she has a good year. I know he was providing a service for a payment, but he definitely went way, way beyond what he could've done to get the cash. Dude is a total cornball and I don't even love Sugar Ray, but I'll always love the guy for that.

I try not to judge a book by his cover but my "someone I wouldn't be friends with" radar went up when I checked dude's Twitter and his bio said: "Southern boy by God's grace. Love Jesus, music, and my fam." Nothing wrong with any of those things, but this doesn't *not* track...

Incredibly powerful fit in this pic. Eddie figured out the optimal male outfit, and we could all learn a thing or two from him here.

Literally have not heard of Gudda Gudda since Bedrock (aka "The Grocery Bag Song")

Their "Life on Mars?" instrumental cover from Watchmen still gives me chills. Maybe one of my favorite Bowie covers ever.

I have been in a state of extreme distress for the past 24 hours after learning that "Eaux Claires" has an "s" at the end. I appreciate you Scott for overlooking this error.

Taylor confirmed headliner Eaux Claire 2022. No hits. Just Taylor on a modular synth. 50 minute set.

It’s been so long since a single/video drop that felt like an event like this I was starting to forget what this felt like. (This mostly delivered. Stellar video. Song didn’t hit quite as hard as I’d hoped but the bar she’s set for herself is unfairly high.)

When I saw them at Adult Swim Fest the dude with the (longest) beard was wearing a shirt that said "I Survived 50 Old Town Road mashups & all I got was this lousy T-shirt." Corny bitter old dude shit.

I'm really glad they linked the Owen Pallett essay. I always knew I liked the song, but it's fascinating to realize there's something truly brilliant on the very basic compositional level. It's a gem.

I understand there may be factors (pandemic-related or otherwise) outside anyone's control... but how a label head wouldn't bend over backwards to make SZA happy after the behemoth Ctrl. was is absolutely beyond me.

"Focusing on inequality through the lens of entrepreneurial struggles coming from a wealthy entrepreneur" has been the Jay-Z MO for the better part of his career, and I think it's time we can all admit the "liberation through capitalism" approach is - and always has been - a bust.

Otherwise piece of shit senator John Cornyn from my home state of TX introduced the Save Our Stages act alongside Klobuchar, making this bill one of the purest distillations of the "Worst Person You Know Just Made A Great Point" Clickhole article ever.

The Louie comparisons people have been making are spot on. Both of them have made work that's deeply human and compassionate and they also used the confessional nature of their work as a shield. As if the way they've admitted to their personal failings in their work protects them from the far greater failings (read: crimes) they *didn't* admit to.

The guitar on on "Leave It Alone" is positively In Rainbows-esque.

Guys please keep up this relationship with Imperioli. He wrote about his experience at an MBV/Dinosaur Jr. concert the other day on instagram and it was very sincere and passionate. Guest columnist? I leave that in your hands.

Honestly the new Medhane album was my favorite rap album of the year, but the really unpleasant things that have been said about him in the past couple weeks really tarnishes everything he's doing.

Jay Versace also gets to claim being one of the few people to go up against Freddie in a roast battle and hold his ground. "You got the same ears as your dog" is game over. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cJ3DHatN81s

The Lodge Room is absolutely sick as hell, and one of the LA venues I'll miss most until we get concerts back. Saw Deerhunter, Charly Bliss, and DIIV there in the span of a year. Now I'm praying that PG plays there when things re-open.

The best part about a Gorillaz collaboration is that you can never say the featured artist "doesn't make sense," because they've made enough space in their universe, creatively, for essentially *anyone* to make sense.
