Musicological banter

Yeah, the whole part about him being too old or whatever was ridiculous and unnecessary.

Meredith Graves writes a pretty good essay on the Kozelek thing



Reads like a high school sociology paper.

Oh so this is where Joe got this dig that he made last night.

WHat the Chris comment?
No. When you walked away, he said that she writes like a high school student.
First it was The High back on the scene and now I find out Cud is back…

Answer the question.
It's easy, but here is a hint, only watch the last minute of the video for the answer (or just know what it should be)
This happened earlier today.

That Astra Taylor book sounds like a great read. I'll probably grab it. And…Katie!
Not sure about this.

My thought is if you are wanting to sound like the pet shop boys, then work with them.. this sounds like someone attempting to be trendy remix on soundcloud…. A dance pop shift in sound would work for me, this track just sounds far to kitchen sink to me

Totally agreed. When I heard it I felt the urge to put on "Stars of Track and Field". I can totally get on board with "Your Cover's Blown" and "Electronic Renaissance". But this is just boring.
Don't get me wrong that funky little guitar bit at beginning signals the start of something fun, but it quickly gets lost into a neo-disco mess.. would dig hearing a Johnny Marr or Pet Shop Boys remix of it

A Momentary Lapse of Reason is my favorite Pink Floyd record.


Not a Floyd album…. read up on it.. Gilmour hired literally like 80 studio musicians to come up with something that would sound like Pink Floyd. Not even Rick Wright was an "official" Floyd member at the time

I stand by my post.
The Division Bell is my second favorite.  Would you like to discuss this one?
Dark Side of the Moon is my third favorite.


Why do you care so much what I like, at least to the point where you need to comment negatively on my choices?

if your read Salman Rushdie's memoir, Joseph Anton, its hard to think too highly of Yusuf…I would never pay money to see him….of course, if you read Salman Rushdie's memoir, Joseph Anton, its also hard to think too highly of Salman Rushdie…
I think Meddle is my favorite now…Sort of overplayed Dark Side…

the first Floyd album might be my second favorite..

Not a fan of the Wall

I don't think one should get so touchy because its pointed out, correctly, that AMLOR is a forgery.

That is good….

Their cover of Where the Street have no name is also really good….I think it segues into Can't Take My Eyes Off of you..
