cokemachineglow, you are reliably terrible

Yeah the JH album is pretty nice. I probably wouldn't have paid attention if it weren't for ILX having fun with that deranged review.

DJP otm - but it's not news that pop/rock writers seem to feel above learning musical terminology. not above using some of the words. but above doing the groundwork of knowing what they mean.

the escalating stack of Venn diagrams

This sounds like a great way to serve pancakes.

They've noticed!

@NedRaggett Alternatively - and I know we're asking a lot - you could actually read what we publish and, y'know, draw your own conclusions.

good marketing strategy: I know you've heard we're reliably terrible, why not find out for yourself?

T/F: People who use the word "alternatively" are the worst people on Earth

what about if Chris Lowe used it?

that would hurt me deeply in my heart

you know the logic of that tweet--don't trust the opinions of your knowledgable peers--eliminates the need for music reviews. granted, they don't seem to be in the business of publishing those, so n/m

lol was that tweet in response to something specific Ned, or are you just the public face of ILX?

The "thanks for participating in our podcast" tweets they have seem a little odd. Do artists personally respond to requests for music and send websites audio for the podcast?

I'm assuming they mean "thanks for letting us use your song / thanks to your publicist for sending a song to promote you with" or in the worst case "dude, we put your song in a podcast, hope that's cool"

xpost -- specific, but I had linked here.

Ned, you need to send dude a link to this and say "you lost this game before you published your first review"

Lordy.
