I am still waiting for my issue in the mail :-( shouldn't it be here by now if it's already on newsstands?

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

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.

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.

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

dude go for it, subway ain't free

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!

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

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!

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

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

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?

This Air sounds good, though. I had written them off.

xpost old firefox has some issues with the site. I say update it or use google chrome or \o_O/

I just updated my firefox today!

Okay, I've got to check out Sinaii. I'm guessing you said what Nick quoted knowing that there is in fact seriously fierce competition for that title, right?

haha i disliked the cater tutti void record a lot and i didnt really like beak> either. im going to listen to pallbearer and sinaii tho...

Oh, hang on, I'll actually go read the thing, that might be an idea.

Sinaii was great

The Air album very good too

Yall can still stream the DJ Rashad off the site. It's my album of the year... SO FAR

i would never have predicted W.G.'s footwork-obsession

fanute gingrich (The Reverend), Tuesday, 19 June 2012 03:14 (11 months ago) Permalink

i saw that tweet whiney, and appreciated the acknowledgement, just thought you could've done like one more considering your very vocal stance last year. admittedly, this is DUMB INTERNET STUFF, no doubt.

regardless, the music is what matters: thanks for pointing me to Siinai, that shit is awesome. going to check out Rashad right now.

alpine static, Tuesday, 19 June 2012 05:38 (11 months ago) Permalink

oh just saw your "... SO FAR" on the Rashad post, well played, i lol'd. ignore me, dogg.

alpine static, Tuesday, 19 June 2012 05:39 (11 months ago) Permalink

man, next thing you know whiney's gonna be cool with white guys writing memoir pieces about their hip-hop fanship

da croupier, Tuesday, 19 June 2012 05:43 (11 months ago) Permalink

This Siinai is good and all, but I would still take Circle over them any day of the week.

Beak> is honestly one of the best bands going right now

I like the way they draw a little picture of a beak after their name! Are they following Sunn O)))'s example? More bands should do this!
