Yeah the '94 original seems to have the better tracklist.

lol oops!

whoa that's what was on Pure Moods?! did I just forget?

merry xmas mr. lawrence -> twin peaks theme is the boldest mixtape move of all time

is this the first time they've slotted a track review in to whats the album reviews area? (for posterity the new kanye song)

I think so, yes! I'm not mad about it.

probably.

also, kanye should have stayed quiet. last thing anyone needs right now is his narcissism.

gonna make shirts:

"IF YOU LISTEN TO KANYE, YOU'RE PART OF THE PROBLEM"

Weird review. Why did they bother?

because kanye is one of their top-five defining artists since the conde nast takeover became complete?

So review it like any other Kanye track? Why break precedent for this one, just to be... “Ehh, this sucks”

(Or does today just happen to be the beginning of a new era, in which track reviews are mixed in with album reviews, and it just as easily could have been Gum Country or whatever?)

it would make more sense if from now on they're putting track reviews in with album reviews instead of in with news

I wonder why they didn’t review that Beyoncé track; seems like it would have been a natural choice.

A Sufjan single is now the lead review and labeled BNM. So I guess this is a thing now.

they're finally catching up with the fast-paced lifestyles of generation zoom

this happens every weekend

ah

12 minutes of maximalist minimalism that makes a hackneyed political statement, can’t wait.

idk seems credible

Are they deliberately not reporting on Kanye for prez? If so, I applaud that.

perhaps we could follow suit

had the same thought. good on 'em if so.

Or they could just not be reporting on it because of holiday weekend, since there hasn't been any new news items since July 3?

That Pure Moods review is lovely and made me laugh quite a bit, particularly in the sections about Enigma.

Crockett's Theme came back for a brief while during the balearic times of the mid-aughts, I used to play it at parties, same with Enya. People would go nuts for it?

Tiga’s remix of FPU’s cover of “crockett’s theme” is a goddam jam

wait the original mix I mean

the kanye news is there now but framed in a way that I appreciate ("has filed no paperwork" right in the headline)

so their new podcast is gonna flop right

rude

sorry didn't know you were producing

ah cool whiney congrats

Serious power move to place a review of an album entitled Fucking Hell directly alongside a review of an album entitled Massey Fucking Hall on today's albums page.

Surviving under capitalism is a drag—it’s the oldest story in rock’n’roll—

Is it? Like, "Yip yip yip yip yip yip yip yip, Mum mum mum mum mum mum, get a job"?

pretty sure the oldest story in rock 'n' roll is "I want to fuck"

You woman have heard of jalopies
You heard the noise they make
Let me introduce you to my Rocket '88
Yes, it's great, just won't wait
Everybody likes my Rocket '88
There is no ethical consumption under capitalism

more like a drag race

I guess Meddle is exactly on par with Set My Heart on Fire Immediately.

I can't believe Pink Floyd had a dog in the band who could play the blues and make sound collages, and even more amazingly, the dog wasn't able to get a record deal of his own! Blatant music industry species-ism.

Kind of funny to see Pink Floyd and the Grateful Dead at the top of the reviews section

It's a good writeup even if I think it should be a 9.5 or whatever

“And here you are, still doin’ you,” she sings. “It never worked out, but it never stopped you.” Those are great lines

they are?

"The best pop songs leave you wanting more."

They do?
