    top piece from Blackdown on Pitchfork

    i find this statement staggering -- unless i misunderstand your meaning surely they were one of the most sonically innovative acts ever = real substance in my book, not gimmick how do you get to SUAD w/o public enemy?

    VICE magazine's G. MacInnes in The American Conservative

    which means he's doing so at the expense of the people in middle america who supported him therefore they are rather stupid -- correct? or else they've concluded that america's economic health will decline and their own prospects deteriorate regardless of which party is in power -- and...

    VICE magazine's G. MacInnes in The American Conservative

    what you call "these grounds" is not blissblogger's premise i.e., he's not taking issue w/ privileged people making art or writing -- that'd be the height of hypocrisy as blissblogger, by my understanding, rec'd a first-rate education rather, he's taking issue w/ how certain people make use of...

    i think there may be too many hoops to jump through i.e., register w/ the mp3 service, then they'll send you the code -- but if you have a spam blocker for your e-mail account, then you likely won't receive the code, etc

    why do you say in "urban America in particular"? and how does this relate to red state/blue state voting patterns?

    VICE magazine's G. MacInnes in The American Conservative

    errrr, no -- this is called sharing or popularizing or legitimating a perspective -- not telling the truth i was rightfully taken to task upthread for striking an portentous tone when i said vice magazine was about perspective and not about the truth but now you've given me grounds to make...

    VICE magazine's G. MacInnes in The American Conservative

    nice comment -- should provoke more discussion -- not that i agree w/ all you say or anything i think there is rage and that the rage has everything to do with being boring = most of us become deadly boring and yet none of us would freely choose this fate (not sure if the rage directly relates...

    VICE magazine's G. MacInnes in The American Conservative

    to me he was simply an abstract friend of other abstract friends on the internet -- a name i had often seen mentioned while reading woebot or k-punk or hanging out on dissensus -- so i have no real opinion on the nick kilroy piece -- was merely trying to clarify 3underscore's reference though i...

    The 90s Canon

    rather than jest, what would people seriously propose for a 90s canon (who cares what the hypothetical mojo would include?-- and what's the upshot if this mojo would or wouldn't include a label or act? should i write off 4hero or mbv b/c they'd more likely than not be included?) or as someone...

    Boom Boom Bashment: Killer Ragga Riddims 2001-2004

    i'm listening to this as i write sounds really good -- not heavy & hard & testosterone, but also not slow & boring & narcotic -- and, yes, as someone who's never felt entirely at home on the dancehall terrain, i tend to judge the tracks by what they're not or rather, i don't necessarily seek...

    my other big scam is to go by hostels for all the international visitors to nyc, as they often put out free pizza for their guests tuck a couple pizzas under my arm, then head for the door

    shoplifting

    i've always been pretty fearless & shameless when it comes to filching drinks i.e., when i'm too brok to go out . . . . then get there and realize i need a few drinks so people turn their backs or leave drinks unattended, which opportunities i then seize the only real hazard is unwanted...

    The 90s Canon

    as for tireless non-canonical labor . . . . there'll be people doing "nuggets" retrospectives of all the boring 90s genres e.g., rare gems of mid-90s house and then probably people focusing every more intently on the sounds of various cities and regions before such places won their 15...

    The 90s Canon

    can't tell if this is supposed to be: (1) what the mainstream media says is best of 90s (2) what dissensus "consensus" says is best (3) what each of us says is best -- consensus or not EDIT: suppose (3) is eliminated as this thread is labeled "90s canon"!
