"Most of the time, a window is reassuringly binary. It divides outside from inside, light from heat, and watcher from watched, rendering objects beyond with picture-frame distinctness: the sun, the moon, the ballerina who lives across the courtyard. A world viewed only through a window, like a life lived only on cinema screens, may offer the illusion of clarity-- particularly comforting in an era parted between people too aware of their own fallibility and those convinced they can do no wrong-- and yet, as James Stewart's character learns in Rear Window, sometimes the illusion is real indeed."
Best read aloud while wearing a monacle and drunk on that Pinot you bought after seeing Sideways. If you can get through the last sentence without shitting yourself with laughter, you're a stronger man than I.

Vampire Weekend ~ Vampire Weekend ****(125) $9.99

online is great, but sometimes i just like to stick my nose deep into a book and sniff it.
the Trouser Press books are great for this. there's a couple of em that i've been going through the past couple years, the one up til '91 or so, and then the one that covers '91 to like '96 or '97. very very good, concise reviews, more often than not OTM.

Agreed to that -- had 89, 91 and 96 over the years and they were all quite crucial to getting me into a slew of music I wouldn't've heard about otherwise at the time.

The world really needs Cosloy to get his act together and publish Conflict in book form.

also, for the rest of you ingrates about to negg my idea, theonion.com (similar demographic) has at least three anthologies that charted on the New York Times bestseller list.
