pitchfork is dumb (#34985859340293849494 in a series.)

Holy shit, I forgot that Surfer Blood was even a band, let alone this happened. I assumed they were touring in bizarro world with Tapes n Tapes and Clap Your Hands and some other oh-yeah bands.

Surfer Blood recently played a cafe here, so I don't know that you're far off

Blood Surfer would have been a much better name

yet another mistake for surfer blood

I never thought I'd see a Remy Shand song show up in the Tracks section on Pitchfork, and yet here we are.

Not that there's anything wrong with it, it's just weird.

nice "angle" you dicks (band and p4k) http://pitchfork.com/features/update/9129-surfer-blood/

You only have to scroll up literally 2 posts to see a lengthy discussion of that article fyi

sorry, was posting from a phone and didn't check previous posts.

thought Paul Thompson wrote a pretty excellent review of the new Surfer Blood, touching on that stuff in the right way:
http://pitchfork.com/reviews/albums/18123-surfer-blood-pythons/

by "that stuff" I mean an accusation of domestic abuse

wow he goes hard in that review

paul's a great writer

Haha "Gil Norton (Doolittle, Del Amitri)"

yeah i did a double-take at that

http://pitchfork.com/reviews/albums/18186-action-bronson-saab-stories/

constant misspelling of "saaab stories" as "saab stories," including in the URL. spellcheck's a bitch.

Looks like they've fixed it.

the dissolve (new film site) launches tmrw

Shouldn't discussions on The Dissolve be reserved for this topic.

"It should surprise exactly no-one that Honey Locust Honky Tonk is a good record: Even at his most unedited and undigested, Pollard’s music still displays a joy in its own resourcefulness, a contentment in its own faith in the power of rock and roll to define a life. In other words, every release is worth spinning at least once. But it should surprise everyone that Honey Locust Honky Tonk is a very good record, his best and most focused in quite some time"

me:" wow, it will probably get a score of at lease 8 point something"

but no, it's 7.4..

THANKS GUYS FOR THE ARTILE ABOUT BIRRTIOS

Radiohead fans might just have to seek refuge in Au Bon Pain.

I think that's kind of interesting.

Like it's neat that there's someone whose job it is to figure out what music will sound good in the acoustic environment of a particular restaurant.

Prep cooks usually get precedence over wait staff iirc

i was in a giant chipoltes downtown last week and they were playing the slits cover of 'heard it through the grapevine' which i thought was really funny because this dirtbag coffee shop/bar place that my friend works at, the owner asked her to take the slits off her work playlist because it alienated the customers

That sounds like best chipoltles ever

heard todd terje - inspector norse in a chipotle once and couldn't believe it

the chipotle in manhattan on 23rd and park plays better music than what i've heard at 80% of parties in my lifetime

What's up with Chipotle playing crazy good music? It seems at least somewhat consistent. I eat at Chipotle a lot and go to various locations around Los Angeles. They play from decent to really good music--of course, it's subjective, but I'm still pretty surprised. Who is selecting their music?

I almost made a thread on this but didn't. Don't know why.

not me

That sounds like best chipoltles ever

I love it when people add an "s" to this name. I have a friend who insists on calling it "Chi-POLE-tees", as though it were the restaurant of a proprietor named Chipoltee -- no irony, he's just really bad at pronouncing things.

Argh! Thank you. Totally missed it. I have my CSS for this site off, so it reverts to the classic one, which I find difficult to parse various types of info on.

Christopher Golub, to answer my own question. Heehee! XD

Jesus. World's shortest 'article'.

That
s

what I', saying

Pitchfork s dumb

Funny, I specifically remember geeking out to hearing "I Might Be Wrong" at a Chipotle in Jefferson City.

chipoletees

At a gas pump the other day, I heard the Smiths "Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now." It was followed by Jackson Browne's "Running on Empty."

is that a gas prices joke

I think it was just a coincidence!

Mirror to the Soul, a compilatoin that pairs a 2xCD set with a tw0-hour documentary made up entirely of clips from the archive of British Pathé, brings together music, film, and writing to provide a perspective on the Caribbean that encourages cultural links and connections.

been noticing lots of typos lately. free site lol i know but kind of undercuts the superiority complex of the place

me too. This sentence occurs in today's Big Star review:

They don't shine like the original album versions, but still, "When My Baby's Beside Me" is just as compelling even if this mix has more pish in the symbols. You would have to be at least a six-out-of-10 on the Big Star nerd scale to hear specific differences without cuing up a Big Star album proper to check.

paragraph even!

Fest is this weekend, likely distractions afoot.

i've been noticing it a lot lately. i mean really who cares it's a free site but it's sort of funny coming from a bunch of stuck-up know it alls

All of these typos you guys are finding get fixed pretty quickly.

why don't they just spellcheck in the first place? are they too good for spellcheck?

Well, "symbols" seems like the exact sort of mistake you get with spell check. Like, if someone wrote "cymbols" instead of "cymbals," I'd bet it might autocorrect to "symbols."
