Old Spin! What a fantastic magazine it was.

picturing people in business casual walking by spottie's desk, looking down and screaming "GROVE STREEEEEEEEEET" or "WAKA! FLOCKA! WAKA! FLOCKA!"

instead of overloaded cluttered pages full of crap that feel like you're barely in control of your own internet experience

Readability is an app that strips extraneous shit from web pages.

I like using the Reader button in the Safari app for this purpose.

hey whiney i've been listening to stuff off the spin best albums of 2012 so far thing, some good tunes maaan

tried reading that & just got caught on a loop of action bronson -> addison groove -> action bronson -> addison groove

carly rae (flopson), Monday, 18 June 2012 20:35 (11 months ago) Permalink

that was a damn fine list, i thought. would've liked to see just a little more mea culpa from whiney on twitter for doing a "so far" thing, though. dude gave a LOT of people/places shit for that last year.

alpine static, Monday, 18 June 2012 21:21 (11 months ago) Permalink

being whiney means never having to say you're sorry

when whiney does the exact same thing he criticized others for its totally different remember! And will prove it with a month long poll.

he must be held accountable!
but srsly, i am having a weird desire to subscribe to spin. last ish i got was in 1996! should i do this!?

tylerw, Monday, 18 June 2012 21:31 (11 months ago) Permalink

dude go for it, subway ain't free

wack nerd zinging in the dead of night (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Monday, 18 June 2012 21:33 (11 months ago) Permalink

i don't care how whiney gets to work

tylerw, Monday, 18 June 2012 21:40 (11 months ago) Permalink

no, don't get me wrong, like i said i dug the list. and it led me to some stuff, too. and it's not like i'm staying up nights angry because whiney didn't beg forgiveness.

i just think slagging everyone else left and right essentially for tacking "...so far" onto their lists and then 12 months later doing the xact same thing (w/ the ellipsis, even!) without poking some significant fun at yourself is not a great look. but whatever. the rules are different for different folks, i get that.

alpine static, Monday, 18 June 2012 21:41 (11 months ago) Permalink

i totally just subscribed to spin! do not disappoint me, magazine!

tylerw, Monday, 18 June 2012 21:52 (11 months ago) Permalink

waiting to have time to sit down with the last three issues, queue up a playlist and really dig in.
this will happen.

Authorities don't know who shot the 50 Cent the goose. (forksclovetofu), Monday, 18 June 2012 23:15 (11 months ago) Permalink

also attention whiney: i know you pooh poohed guided by voices at that CBGB show but cloud nothings are also playing if that's your thing.
no idea why it would be, but they're both on that playlist so

Siinai are Finland's greatest krautrock band

Haven't actually heard Siinai, but that's some bold talk Whiney.

Zaireeka Badu (NickB), Monday, 18 June 2012 23:17 (11 months ago) Permalink

They're pretty damn good!

Ned Raggett, Monday, 18 June 2012 23:26 (11 months ago) Permalink

Apparently so!

Zaireeka Badu (NickB), Monday, 18 June 2012 23:28 (11 months ago) Permalink

damn whiney you couldnt sneak a single good weirdo record on that list but you had room for cloud nothings???

Lamp, Tuesday, 19 June 2012 00:06 (11 months ago) Permalink

damn lamp you dont like a band called 'cloud nothings'???

some dude, Tuesday, 19 June 2012 00:08 (11 months ago) Permalink

I think Sinaii, Beak>, Carter Tutti Void, Pallbearer and three footwork records is pretty good weirdo bait! I was stumping very hard for White Suns but couldn't get that one to stick. I'll be doing my 20 Avant Records list at the end of the year, no doubt.

You should hear the record; it's really, reallyincredible.

Delbert Botts, D.D.S. (Stevie D(eux)), Tuesday, 19 June 2012 00:34 (11 months ago) Permalink

You guys can shit on the list all you want, but if I turn at least one person on to Sinaii, then I feel like I've done my part for the year!

Mordy, dope playlist. How many albums of the 40 aren;t on Spotify?
