"Lay down on the couch and relax."
"Thank you, Doctor."
"So, you are in the journalism business?"
"Yes, I edit a magazine called UNCUT."
"Ah, I see! Castration anxiety brought on by shame over being a 'cavalier' and not a 'roundhead'. Perfectly normal."
"No, Doctor, it's not that. How could it be, when I actually circumsized myself with a breadknife in frusration last year!"
"Hmmm, frustration. Do you know what it is you were frustrated about?"
"I feel so...POWERLESS. Like nothing I say has any effect, that I'm screaming into a void and nobody can hear me."
"And why can they not hear you?"
"Because they've all got (Shania Twain/Papa Roach) playing in their Discmans!"

I don't understand what the fuck this thread means but I like UNCUT allot, its one of the best music rags I know of.

Presumably a pisstake of renowned alt-country obsessive Allan Jones.

Country music = good. Alt-country = good. Queens Of The Stone Age = good. Shelby Lynne = good, though I'm not sure her big album has much to do with those first two things. Uncut magazine = unread by me (sorry).

TH ecool thing about uncut is they give you a nice free Cd so you can actually hear for your self what theyre talking about.

I think uncut is rad. It's a magazine as well?
