(at this point they get distracted by my LAUGHING OUT LOUD at their conversation, I feel bad, pay for my Blur CD and my Tomahawk CD and my Pharaoh Monche CD and leave)

"Hold On", replete with interview clips from "real" suicide "survivors". So tastelessly manipulative that it's offensive, and not in a good way either.
Dud, dud, dud.

But yeah...I can't believe Chuck Eddy likes third eye blind. I mean, maybe everyone here is used to hearing Chuck wax on about bands that "omigod, i can't believe he likes that!" but this goes beyond idiosyncratic and I want to be a rebel to the canon and everything too but jesus 3rd Eye Blind is dreadful. And I'm not saying this from any rockist part of my heart I promise you. The melodies are just so putrid and the songs themselves are so bland and disgusting and revolting ARGERSFDLFJDS. Will there be a point where I won't find myself flipping out about Chuck's taste? Cuz I keep thinking I've reached that point and then in comes another artist from out of left field.

I like Good Charlotte a lot more than I used to. I'm a sucker for "Predictable," and the new one sounds pretty good too. I guess once I stopped caring about the "morality" of Good Charlotte or whatever, I started liking the music way more.

It's definitely there most "pop" great song.

anyhow, my review of Chronicles Of Life & Death. It's a disappointment but there's enough quality tracks that I don't think they've totally lost what makes them great. As those who can read can see, I agree with xgau's take that they've lost all the specifics from the last album, but I still enjoy their harmonies and (dare i say) earnestness. I hope "Mountain" is the next single. It's sweet.

Ahhhhh, the sweet smell of hypocrisy.
― Alex in NYC, Wednesday, 27 February 2008 16:45 (sixteen years ago) link
Yeah, it is kind of hypocritical how the guy who always rails against vapid modern celebrity culture is now informing me about who Paris is dating.
― Alex in Baltimore, Wednesday, 27 February 2008 16:49 (sixteen years ago) link
Is it my fault that this picture was in the New York Post I happened to be reading? Lifestyles of the Rich & Famous indeed.
You shame the name Alex.
― Alex in NYC, Wednesday, 27 February 2008 16:56 (sixteen years ago) link
So wait, how is it hypocrisy for one of the Maddens to date Paris after the other knocked up Nicole? Or is the hypocrisy that you feel that in light of past Paris/Nicole rifts that this is disloyal? I need to know where you stand, man.

FYI: the Madden Brothers are currently doing an acoustic set in the middle of an Australian cricket match on Australia Day.

It's all part of this terrific marketing campaign for a major fast food chain.
