for a dude that had universal ilx praise round here for awhile im kind of in the he-fell-off camp. freddie gibbs piece was eye-roll-y, & there's something so trite & un-critical about stuff like this: "Get ready for a fight about the legitimacy of the group and, hopefully, for an influx of more South African pop culture."

Pop Matters singles list includes the title track from the Roots' How I Got Over. the album was released in June 2010 but that song was released as a single in June 2009.

xp Rock-A-Rolla wrote back and said Reckless carries it. I've looked there before with no luck. I had 'em hold the Oct/Nov issue for me. I assume the one with the year-end list is Dec/Jan? It isn't there yet.

They said the Young Gods cover with the list should be in U.S. stores in 2 wks. Does it have some good write-ups with each album?
Picked up Decibel last night, and both Ivar and Grutle of Enslaved put Motorpsycho in their top 5 (both also had Iron Maiden and Shining). It's not for everyone, but if you're into psych 'n' prog, I recommend it.
I gotta have respect for anyone who listens to more stuff than me (which seems to max out at 500 a year lately). I'd imagine if I had to listen to more than 1,000 new albums a year my habits would change and I would be less patient for growers, and more into stuff that spreads immediately with the hooks and the melodies.

there are plenty of artists at this point for whom 'the collected eps by...' has been replaced by 'the collected mp3s by'

I think Cam1ll3 D0der0 is on some ironic ish with that. She's a Village Voice web editor and she calls herself a "Juggalo expert" on her twitter bio. She also wrote one of those big pieces about "lol look at the juggalos gathering".

did people ever refer to "the collected EPs by" an artist as an album or are you talking about stuff that actually was compiled/reissued on one release?

The process of recycling Styrofoam
The process of recycling Styrofoam involves feeding the collected EPS foam through conveyor belts into a shredding machine.
The shredded EPS foam is then transferred to a plastic extruder where the foam is exposed to heat and pressure to melt the EPS foam. Subsequently, the melted EPS foam passes out through a small outlet at the end of the extruder and solidifies into a continuous form.
This form of EPS can then be easily transported to the required factories for remolding (again using heat and pressure) into its new EPS products.
Check out this video on the Styrofoam recycling process.

That is true Whiney, I had her piece mixed up with another one until I looked at it again.

it was still basically "lol juggalos" but not terribly condescending in the process

is there any list out there that includes "miami 2 ibiza" aside from mine? like, is there any dance crit site that takes populist dance music seriously whatsoever? it seems like theres some wild double standard w/ rap where everyone takes Drake soooo seriously, and dance music where we're only reviewing obscure german 12"
