max's deadpan snark is hilarious

oh, and yes! MBV! MBV are the Great act that emerged from indie pop - that is clear, why couldn't I see it before! They were indie pop, more clearly and purely than any of the other acts I've just mentioned - and they became (very widely accepted as) Great (and in a way had always been great). So they are the proof that it can happen.

that entire thread is like watching 4 blind guys and an elephant

Annie Hall manages to feature two stars more annoying than Billy Crystal and Meg Ryan

How was this not made ILM board description?

.

Britpop was like 60s psych pop, 70s symphonic rock, the more subtle 70s glam rock and 80s new romantics/synthpop in that it didn't want to choose between commerse and art. It say "Yes, please" to both. Just like The Beatles, Yes, David Bowie and Human League had done previously.

This is a very typical British thing as American acts tend to choose either commerse all the way or uncompromised experimentation.

Dunno much about George Strait actually, but I am pretty sure he has more musical talent than anyone with the surname Beckham has ever had. He may be a bit behind in the image/icon bit though...

(or "had" more musical talent, as I guess he is dead by now)

Not a bad shot in the dark there, tho'.

And as much as I freaking love NEU! and realise that the Stereolab track is a total cop of Hallogallo - I do actually prefer Jenny Ondioline because the only way that Hallogallo could POSSIBLY be any better would be if they stuck some icy cool female harmony vocals over the top and lo and behold... JENNY ONDIOLINE is the winner.

there is no way to improve on hallogallo

As an ilx meme I predict pastagina has more legs than I'm white btw.

― Aimless, Tuesday, July 1, 2008 10:47 AM Bookmark

hes got a point insofar as pastagina is not funny and its the unfunny memes that seem to stick

never heard of it

i'm white, btw

throw the pastagina at the wall and see if it sticks

it didn't. :(((

Man, Twista sucked. I don't think anyone good could
ever be influenced by him.
I think Outkast and Busta represent the outer limit
of rapping speed, anything faster sounds mechanical
and cheesy (well, Busta does, sometimes) but even
they don't rap fast 100% nonstop.

BONUS BEATZ::

Yeah, Gift is great, but that's the only track on _Blazing
Arrow_ that made me go "eh." I mean, it's been done, hasn't it?

Since we're on the topic of the Blackalicious album, did anyone
else catch the reference to "Kobaia chronicles" in one of the link
tracks? I almost DIE when I hear that, I love it SO MUCH!!

For the uninitiated, Kobaia was an imaginary world created by
the french prog band Magma. They helpfully reviewed the
history of Kobaia on several classic LP's, which they
sung in the native language of Kobaia, Kobaian.

I heard/saw Beck doing "I wanna get next to you and yr sister" live, and realised he does falsetto better than Prince!

harsh but fair.

John Coltrane is a phase you pass through and then someone you revisit from time to time throughout your life, but not someone whose music provides daily, easygoing listening pleasure.

― unperson, Thursday, August 13, 2009 3:32 PM

hahaha wow so RONG

haha yea i saw that

didn't bother responding

"unperson" indeed.

aka ph1l fr33m4n rite?

Correct.

a curve supreme

^^ hah!

seriously -- I know that guy from another board, where he was challop master par excellence.

(the wire) was an okay show. I'd say its about as good as the movie Traffic.

shakey mo needs to completely stfu about everything ever, esp anything to do with the evil police and noble selfless drug pushers

i bet he'll be totally blasé when omar dies ...

Omar dies????

jk, saw it all

lol, "omar little" getting angry at that revive

^_-

he'll probably say something to the effect of "he had it coming, plus, he wasn't very likeable anyway."

the idea of being mad at the wire for being too sympathetic to the man is just so headinhands.jpg

kinda got tired of how they played up the nobility of burrell and rawls

ha i was kind of getting mad at myself at how mad i get every time shakey revives that thread. ilx should never have baited him by digging the wire, i guess.

I don't even read those threads intentionally and I get it - Shakey hates the wire. We ALL get it.

I don't think he DOES hate the wire, he just doesn't love it.

Well I hate the Wire and I haven't seen it. Seems like one of those smug things, something to signify to people that you have an s.o. to snuggle up with on the couch and watch a DVD set with. For starters. And if it sympathizes with narcs I'm just not there.

Half-serious.

It sympathizes with everyone, really.
Even you. Specifically you. There's a fourth season arc about you.

I get around.
