It's hard for me to imagine that Mariah album isn't a total train wreck given the current state of her voice

I liked the Mariah album a lot more than i did the Kelis album. Cry, faded, dedicated, Camoflage, money and (really shoulda been a hit) thirsty are all great.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5BYNma9wxxw

"Luke! There's a track we've got to take out of the chart IMMEDIATELY or I quit!"
Not at all - it's a great track and FWIW, it was in my personal top tracks of the year poll when I voted. I'm only sorry I only bought the single the week after Supernormal because otherwise I would have seen your set. My mates in Teeth Of The Sea, Sex Swing and various other sorts on the noise rock scene were raving about you.

Sex Swing are fucking amazing aren't they? We promoted a gig by them last night which I couldn't attend for personal reasons but apparently they were amazing. It may have been an ex-member of Dethscalator who hipped me to Slum Of Legs rather than one of Sex Swing… my memory is not what it once was and members of UK noise rock royalty all start blurring into one person (in my head he's 100ft tall, wearing a Killdozer T-shirt with pot burns in it and saying something amusing about cheese) in my head after a while. Anyway, I'm done hijacking the thread, apologies.

The playlist includes all songs (on Spotify) that appear on lists by Rolling Stone, Spin, NME, Pitchfork, Paste, Wondering Sound, Drowned in Sound, Consequence of Sound, Pretty Much Amazing, Complex, Quietus, Time, Billboard, PopMatters, Slant, FACT, maybe one or two others I'm forgetting.
