"fetid underbelly"

six months pass...

Is it still okay to say 'Cut to July 2006...' or whatever in a music feature, or has that been murdered through overuse?

using that once is murdering it

"Blog-ready" "blog-friendly" "blog-driven" etc.

Obviously it's forgivable to discuss blogs if you're talking about the marketing of a band, (which itself is quite overdone as a story these days), but it doesn't say one thing about the music, and it's always used to seem *in-the-know* but blase while avoiding actually saying anything new about the artist.

Our radio station advisor sent out the weekly DJ playlist email describing Lily Allen as a "breakthrough blog-pop act". I suppose the right way for him to have said it is "MySpace-pop" but again that really doesn't lend any insight either.

It's like calling a band "e-mail blastcore"
