The All-New STYLUS.

Can't wait to see Kid A still end up winning it.

OTM.

And I can't fucking wait.

Kid A won't win.

However Ned Raggett Reads the Almanac is in with a chance.

Ned, how much would I have to pay you to record a spoken word version of Kid A?

How much you got?

I thought it said Ned Raggett Reads Amnesiac which would also be worthwhile listening.

Anything is possible.

Would you consider using the moniker "RadioNed"?

Except that.

Good to have limits.

Ned, I've got enough to buy you the Happy Meal of your choice.

this is dope news!

And here I thought we'd have to wait for another Live8 before this reunion would happen.

DOMINIC

That's not even his name!

Looking forward to this ...

wait, seriously? AMAZING.

Can't wait!

Yeah this is great!

Oops, so there goes the embargo. Yes, it's all rather thrilling!

However Ned Raggett Reads the Almanac is in with a chance.

Come on now, clearly π is a better contender for album of the decade. If Reads the Almanac beats π it will be like when that one Hold Steady album beat that other Hold Steady album in the Pfork poll -- an inconceivable outrage.

I leave it up to my international fanbase, really.

what if one of them votes for almanac and one votes for π?

Alfred said something on a thread recently that gave me the impression this was happening.

I also made Stylus playlists. Makes me really sad they're gone. They should try and reunite the staff for a non paid one time only end of the decade feature.

Careful what you wish for.

Actually, I was referring to the exchange between me and Alfred that immediately followed Nick's "careful what you wish for" comment:

That's as cryptic as when you said, in response to rumors that Stylus was closing, "I'm still writing."

All will be revealed in the fullness of time. But nothing's gonna happen for about 6 weeks while we write content and build an actual site.

that makes sense.

Just bring back Stylus full time already.

Sadly, unless anyone who wants that to happen is a billionaire philanthropist, Stylus wont ever come back full time.

now if you had said millionaire, then maybe i could have helped.

really looking forward to seeing the all new new one off stylus.

I still haven't found another music site I like as much as Stylus since it closed in Oct. 2007.

Has anyone?

Dude it's mondeo pop month on ich luge bullets.

you don't need to find another website.

You're right. I need nothing more than a little Dom in my RSS reader.

Carefully phrased.

I'm impressed!

Stylus staff I find myself agreeing with the most:

Ian Mathers
Alfred Soto
Lisa Oliver
Martin Kavka
David Raposa

Stylus staff on the singles jukebox most prone to elicit WTFs from me:

Joseph McCombs
Keane Tzong

Nick Southall, Chuck Eddy and Iain Forrester fall somewhere in between.

Out of topic but needed to write that down to see the individual lists.

What happened to Lisa Oliver and who is that Keane guy?

Raposa and Eddy have written for the current incarnation of the Singles Jukebox but never wrote for Stylus, IIRC.

Hay Nick, will it be an honorary Beatles-themed Stylus?

...

:D

?

Is Dom writing every essay?

RIP

Mystic.

We decided not to actually have anyone words or pictures, but rather to let people IMAGINE our decade list, so no one's disappointed.

Very protean, I approve.

kshighway's gonna cry.

Well I'm disappointed. Radiohead making up the whole top ten, I ask you.

If you look hard at that first S you can see Jeff Tweedy, eyes twinkling.

So, umm, yeah, what is actually happening?

Wait and see.
