ok ethan i'll play them hot shots II and madvillain next time and they'll still say it's shite. what i'm trying to say is that people in general are into adult-contemporary/indie dreck like snow patrol, and anything with a bit of originality is shunned. -- Just got offed, Monday, 28 May 2007 16:09 (Yesterday) Bookmark Link

My two co-workers (neither is a critic) who've played it at work after downloading it out of curiosity basically had the reaction of "eh, whatever," not getting what the big deal is either way.
(my girlfriend likes 'em, though)

okay pretty much anything on the teenpop thread is fair game, but.....
How Ashlee says "ruuuule breaker" sounds a lot like McCartney saying "aaaaaah mater" in "Jet" by Wings. (For whatever its worth, I heard maybe six songs from the new Ashlee in the Billboard offices back in December, and this was probably one of my favorites.)

i thought "enlightening music discussion" was not actually a place for enlightening discussion of music, but a place for insane aspie outporings to be posted that the poster themself falsely believes to be enlightening music discussion.

Anyone who thinks Coldplay are pioneering geniuses probably buys less than 4 CD's worth of music a year, if that.

I like Doctor Casino's argument (end of 90s vs. start of 00s) and the suggestion of things by Stone Temple Pilots and Barenaked Ladies, though I've never heard the songs in question. STP and the Ladies could only have existed in the 90s, and can be viewed as self-limiting mechanisms: inevitable yet toxic byproducts of the decade.
Similarly, "Pretty Fly for a White Guy"

AC/DC's "If You Want Blood" and Dire Straits' "Romeo and Juliet" don't work in Empire Records since they galvanize alternia (or at least how the film represents alternia) through music that isn't alternative.

i think this magnificent, gorgeous single deserves its own thread. massive drums, dramatic high-end, growling bass which sounds like engines revving up, gorgeous us-against-the-world lyrics ("i took an oath, i'mma stick it out 'til the end" - aaahhh), and an aboslutely massive crashing powerballad tune. i've played it about 95854944 times in a row since i first heard it. early contender for single of the year! -- lex pretend, Wednesday, April 4, 2007 3:20 AM (10 months ago) Bookmark Link

all of the lex's reviews rest on the piling up of nice-sounding adjectives like that, but using 'gorgeous' and 'massive' twice like that is pretty weak shit even for him.

You like that attitude? Jurassic 5 loving studes in Rawkus hoodies who would look at you like you were nuts for suggesting that something as "mainstream" as Reasonable Doubt is a good album?
