i think that gz post is solid reportage

The web was supposed to be for the "cool" kids, the ones who never wanted to be popular -- but give 'em a taste, and they get hooked too. The whole thing about getting readers is sort of ass backwards -- the web is treated as a unit. What readers? To what purpose -- towards influencing events and discourse, or towards ego reasons, or towards... and so on. If things don't make it into "mass consciousness" maybe they weren't meant to be there, and that doesn't mean anything good or bad. Aphorisms for a New World #1: As the ration of filtering to flow increases, content tends towards the approximate audience it deserves.

two of my favorite posts:

I threw my vote behind In Sides as well - and it would have been even if the album was nothing but "The Girl With the Sun in Her Head" followed by 30 minutes of the band taunting me by name.

OK
Pitchfork - has done their end of year poll, and people have expressed that they have disagreed with the choice of albums,

So when are you going to put your head on the block and state your personal opinions, if you have a weblog or website - when do you plan to publish your best of albums list?

If you don't - then why not use I Love Music - stating your opinions -and asking for debate/comments.

If you disagree with Pitchfork - then thats fine - but please lets have your individual wisdom! enlighten us, entertain us lets create debate

My best 40 albums of 2000 list will be published on 17th December.

where is the thread where gareth and ronan were clowning dj martian over some football bullshit? i didn't even understand half of it but it was pants-pissing funny

Rockism/ Rockist - was a term used in the late 80s in Britain - it indicated people who don't listen to experimental music or diverse music, but only like straight ahead rock/metal music hence the term rockist
someone was rockist if they only listened to hard rock music: AC/DC, Black Crowes, Judas Priest/ Gun/ Tesla/ Guns N Roses/Little Angels/ King Swamp/The Almighty/ Def Leppard etc

and their favoutite music night - was "rock nite" - with long hair/leather jacket/ Guns N Roses patches/ jack daniels/ headbanging/ skinny black jeans - ie all the rock cliches - I am not going there it is to rockist

I used to refer in a derogatory manner to someone in University in the late 80s for being to rockist, i.e they use to read only Raw magazine and their music tastes were too rockist.

While I listened to a wider variety of music Talk Talk/Spacemen 3/ Cocteau Twins/ Yello/Colourbox/ The Fall/ Happy Mondays/ My Bloody Valentine/ arkane/ Front 242/ Husker Du/ Mary Margaret O'Hara/ Kate Bush/Detroit techno/ Wire/ Lowlife/That Petrol Emotion/ Throwing Muses/ Sonic Youth/Phillip Boa & the Voodoo Club/ The Young Gods/ The Chameleons/ Blue Nile/ Voivod/ Sisters of Mercy/ Skinny Puppy/New Order/Killing Joke etc

what do you mean by homegrown pop stuff? because if you mean "I'll Be In The Sky," that shit was worse than anything Bruno Mars has done.

For example, I've noticed many girls tend to treat the penis a bit too gently, which can be a problem if you want to make the guy come.

this is actually the central point of my thesis on gender relations, which is that ppl project their needs onto their partners and u end up w/women all tenderly makin love to your dong when u just want it to get beat the fuck up, and meanwhile dudes are all trying to jackhammer cervixes and fingerblast a broad with a hand covered in superbowl rings

Please note that utility data for the entire campus is also included. This was the only data made available with the application, and in order to accurately estimate and verify savings, individual building meter data will need to be obtained from the campus.

^^^this, far and away. its one thing to churn out crappy product, lots of aging directors do that (hell, young ones too!), but deliberately screwing up your past work - so that NO ONE can ever enjoy it again, that's a whole other level of unforgivable.

Ronan and gareth two of the funniest ilx posters ever imo

the utility data post was a daylong LOl-fest

oh man so many posts yet to make it itt

I really like it. Kind of not four, five, six with features. But really "Don't Cross the Line" first, for no reason, just so good, and then "Free," "All My Life," and the Mariah Carey one, where it's good because, sort of, it's got the really sugary vocal sample combined with sugary vocal and just sounding so good and what is it "You just like honey so you got me like Winnie the Pooh." I wish I could listen to that right now! "You Got Me." It was what I was listening to the first time someone ever touched my penis. A very professional but unnervingly nervous prostitute. For fifty dollars. We parked in an alley and she was upset with me for not being able to drive with the lights off. ("They're automatic ones. I can't turn them off!") So, whatever. She was nervous and parking and we drove around North Central while she kept going. Clicking over to "Hit 'Em Up." Until I was done.

I still occassionally catch myself fantasizing I'm Bob Mould, rockin out in all my (his) glory. usually i'm the fat Mould of old and I like it that way. There've been others but time and time again I come back to BM.

it has to be classic b/c the world would not be the same w/o Bob Mould and his guitar and his voice. he's a singularly special gay man, so any album is a classic b/c it contributes to the future. but i can't/don't listen to any husker du album b/c the lyrics are so dumb and the sounds now are too obvious dramatic angst - its like hetal metal ballads at times. classic dud?

I used to spend a lot of time at this Jazz coffeehouse in Jax FL circa 1993, and I befriended all the rock dudes who were in the Jazz program at UNF.

Eventually, we'd vaguely talk about forming a band over pre-bedtime breakfasts. They all wanted to do what they called "heavy groove". I had no idea what specifically that was, but they cited Rage Agianst..., of course. They all knew I had a little rap career a few years prior - after a while they'd look to me and say "you know, it'd be cool if you rap on it." I'd laugh it off and say "no one wants to hear rapping on Rock music...oh, wait, Rage. Nevermind."

I always thought they were being half assed and somewhat joking. I never flat out said no, but it was pretty clear I wan't into the idea.

Eventually, the coffehouse closed down and I went my way, never taking the idea of their band serious. I bumped into one of the guys about a year later and he said "hey, we actually decided to have someone rap over our band since you weren't so into it. He's a tattoo guy named Fred."

Ladies and gentlemen, Limp Bizkit.
