Megadeth Anarchy In The UK
The Libertines What A Waster
And I think there was a Paul Weller one, but I can't remember which apart from that it was in lieu of the Libertines (i.e. after it)

Unless you actually mean cuckold or cuck. In which case, no I don't think so.

Sweetie - you lost me at 'Chinese delivery restaurant'. Oh, and again at 'is this a cultural thing'.

Self-respecting gourmets do not eat at establishments that would be summarized as 'Chinese delivery restaurants'.

What passes for Chinese food outside of places w/ very very significant, actual/real Chinese populations is simply not Chinese food. The cooks in those restaurants know that they can coat "Walnut Shrimp" (supposed to come in a creamy white-ish sauce) with the ubiquitous orange thing called "sweet and sour" and the average eater would lap it all up.

And, you're lucky to get real Chinese people working the woks or what have you, at all. Never mind actual 'chef's. These people would never be able to get away w/ making edible food for discerning eaters of the Chinese cuisine - but hey, it's "Chinese" (Westernized), and the eaters couldn't tell the difference...so...

And "delivery" - I don't know - when a business model essentially stems out of human laziness - how high do you think 'quality' is on priority?

To ask "is it a cultural thing", after you've roundly criticized your delivery loot as disgusting...hmmm...smells too much like you wanted the couch-potato convenience of delivery, without the painful truth that it necessarily maps to unworthy, unrecognizable grub, and when that reality threw, er, blew up in your face, it was handy to just tar a whole civilization.

well they make you take a class to drive a car and those things aren't even meant to kill people

Be careful before you purchase this CD. If you enjoy Cole Porter because of the creative tempos, the mix of rythmns and lyrics, the way that words play together, and the great melodies - then this is not your CD. The musicians are jazz specialists who see a tune only as the base for them to express their own attitudes, and they destroy Cole Porter by employing their own tempos and melodies and inserting long segments of instrument skill demonstrations that have nothing to do with the song. If you like Jazz, it's probably decent. If you like Cole Porter, don't waste your money.

I've wondered why I keep finding myself disagreeing with your music opinions, but now I understand: you are keeping the torch burning for the challops of 2001 ILM.

That's incorrect, and the first 7 posts on this thread are still OTM.

I'm going to wait for the book about the guy who makes sneering comments about the people that he spies reading Yerac's book.

I would not read either of those books! Just being honest 😝

Aw.

party pooper

If prog just means "radio-friendly mainstream rock perpetrated by people who have classical training, who have played technically complex music at various times in the past, and who are widely regarded as having 'chops' in the guitar-mag sense," then that is pretty meaningless.

..."grimace-inducing" describes your review more than the original CD, in which confident conclusions are unsupported by any clarity and obscene expressions (however softened by abbreviation) have no place.
"Busy Mom" are you? I hope for your community's sake that your parenting is more civilized than your music listening, writing, or good taste.

Another incompetent review by a sneering, busy mom who fancies herself quite the expert but reveals herself immediately as anything but.

sounds like she is more of a bad mom than a busy mom

Ugh... 'Happy' is playing on the radio and the only heartening thing about it is that finally it feels like we're coming out of that obnoxious faux-town craze that lasted wayyy too long.
But there's always going to be a 'Shit Trend' in pop music that exemplifies a particular time - usually it involves producers and artists jumping on an actually very credible idea, but pumping out as many watered-down versions as possible before the trend expires.
Right now, the extent reggaeton-lite fad is clearly becoming more than just a fad as it's been going on for years and recently reared its head with DJ Snake's 'Taki Taki'.
Is this the 'shit trend' right now? Or is there something more insidiously bland waiting in the wings? What other shit trends have there been in history, ones that despite being a bit shit seem to exemplify a two or three year stretch?

ALBUM BY BAND

Too low!

Haven't heard it!

This is so good!

I should listen to this when I get a chance.

Nice images!

join the fun! we need more dissenting voices

I would just post irrelevant jpgs -- I am trying to be less trolly

there are certain albums by bands coming up where i'd almost welcome that

just let me know when ... and whether you'd prefer enthusiastic small dogs, penises, or hitler

or c&p from wikipedia about an esoteric topic

^would enjoy, but lol i honestly can't encourage this behaviour as pollrunner. you will just have to psychically determine when is right

I'd be surprised if I have heard even 5 of these albums tbh

like I will probably know more of the musicians whose albums are rated than I will have heard the albums themselves

I don't know if there's anything productive in determining the relative moral merits of pedophilia vs. fascism - they are not the same thing and not equivalent imo.
