It never ceases to amaze me how some people revel in being complete dirtballs.

Me either, but for some reason I've had the song "Kill Your Television" in my head recently.

And now for a little antipodean classic:

I'd like to say KEXP, but to be honest I rarely listen to broadcast music anymore. When I'm in the car I usually listen to shows that are primarily talk. My afternoon drive time local favorite is...

Yeah, they are almost TOO red. The background looks pixelated, too, because of the heat haze.

Took a day off last week to check out the tulips in the Skagit Valley.

I can see watching a comedy many times, but don't really understand watching any kind of drama over and over. And The Matrix, seriously? I could barely get through it once.

Wow. Beautiful!

^I agree, they should pay royalties to the Reid brothers for that song! Not enough distortion, though.

Now something completely different. Fans of The National should like this:

The allmusic.com review of Psychocandy says "Arguably Psychocandy is an album with one trick and one trick alone -- Beach Boys melodies meet Velvet Underground feedback and beats, all cranked up to...

Never really listened to the Modern Lovers but that's a great tune. They must have been a big influence on The Clean:

Of course it is. Two of the world's biggest attention whores.

In honor of the "reatrded choices" thread--not that this song is retarded.

Trivia for the day: I was wondering why Yngwie spells his name that way. The letter W is not usually used in Swedish. Turns out his given name was Yngve (actually Lars Johann Yngve Lannerbäck) and he...

People go to pop shows to see the spectacle. Generally they could care less about any musicianship exhibited.

Gotta get to Rio sometime. What a setting for a city of over six million!

Incredible record. Hard to believe this is eight years old already.

Thanks. Anyone else read the newish bio of The Smiths "A Light That Never Goes Out?" I'm reading it now. Very good, but man is it comprehensive. I think it clocks in at a little north of 600 pages!

Wow, never knew Ricky Gervais could sing like that! Seriously, this is a good tune.

Now for something completely different. This damn song has been stuck in my head for about the last month. You...

She's hot and she's from the Caribbean. Good enough.

Yes, as long as we don't have to hear her sing.

Was this the official year of the fat chick or something? Adele, Miranda Lambert...Kelly Clarkson looked positively svelte in comparison.

Obviously a much shorter time frame, but one I can think of is Wire. I'm talking about their hiatus between 154 (released in 1979) and the "Snakedrill" EP in 1986.
