Sunday, August 31, 2003. The Neal Pollack Invasion - Never Mind the Pollacks. I have heard the worst album of all time. Well, the worst of the year at least. I wouldn't wish physical harm on anyone, but if I had. At All Music Guide, 75 percent of which is lifted directly from the press release anyway. This makes Powerman 5000's Transform. I'm listening to "Straight to Hell" to purge the negative sounds from my poor battered brain. And on the same side, "Should I Stay Or Should I Go? Para; 1:52 PM. Today ...

Thursday, September 25, 2003. Apparently it is a lyrics-quoting day for some reason. Everyone who is born in this country or applies for citizenship should get a CD single of "Hey Ya":. Shake it, shake it, shake it like a Polaroid picture". I have mixed feelings about the Broken Social Scene. Album, but I can't not. Love "Anthems For A Seventeen Year Old Girl":. Sleep on the floor/. A must-hear for anyone who hasn't already. This is my favorite song/. I sing along when the DJ throws it on". Para; 2:16 AM.

Skinny black guy on El to chubby white girl in Korn T-shirt: "You like Korn? Girl looks down at shirt to check: "Yes.". Guy: "They rock.". Safety in #s: So Many Shrimp. Donald Byrd and the Blackbyrds - "Love Has Come Around". Para; 10:07 PM. More rapping blogs please. You think this is easy, realism.

Sunday, July 25, 2004. In the Chicago Tribune celebrated with reservations the 25th anniversary of the Walkman. Sony’s TPS-L2 cassette player, initially dubbed the Soundabout, debuted with two headphone jacks and something called a Hotline an orange button that let the two listeners talk over the music. Executives had worried that their product would diminish the pleasure people got from listening to music together. The article goes on to quote an archeologist (well well! Who frowns on the matter. I have...

Thursday, November 27, 2003. The video for the rather inevitable Triumph the Insult Comic Dog. Single is out now, and it's mostly rather pedestrian or, at best, mildy amusing jokes ("Yo Pink. Is that your hair or a tattoo? Telling him he's not immune and should "write a song with a fucking tune." Well, I was surprised, anyway. Para; 11:19 PM. Sunday, November 16, 2003. I bought my copy of Keith Jarrett. To turn you on to the most perfect music I’ve experienced. I scoffed at Sharon’s message when I first ...

Monday, December 27, 2004. Stylus did its top 40 albums of 2004. Lots of surprises. You can read my rather blah blurb for Cut Copy. S Bright Like Neon Love. I really should have voted with a bit more brain and a bit less heart. Para; 3:16 PM. Sunday, December 26, 2004. Too lazy to come up with my own thoughts so. Bitchlaces pens the most accurate description of Heartbeats. Simon Reynolds uses the term sonic negritude, spellchecker tells me negritude is a word. Is better than Kanye West. Para; 2:24 AM.

Saturday, April 24, 2004. Saying it's Gundam, but really it's giant robot anime. This has nothing to do with Flip's current hit. I just felt like posting it. Hot chart-on-chart action: "Doomage" contains the line "skinny grizzly bear alcoholic on the loose" which justifies a chart slot on its own. Brother Ali. Opens up on critics, and rightly so - which review from last year didn't. Include some "OMG muslim albino rapper" gimmick insinuation? Song is quite nice. The "Neva Eva" Remix just won't stop.

Thursday, August 19, 2004. Blog is one year old. Huzzah! Para; 11:37 PM. Saturday, August 14, 2004. Return of the G(iorgio). File under "indie rockers liking cool non-indie-rock music," courtesy of Lost At Sea. Pretty Toney Album - I like the celebratory lyrics, I love all the Motown samples - it has a very summery, airy feel to it.". My favorite summer album is Technique by New Order. Because I like all the jams on it.". Fame is the more electronically-minded (not to mention talented) Kinsella. She may ...

Saturday, February 28, 2004. I hear the plane is ready by the gateway to take my love away. I just listened to the Motors. Airport: The Greatest Hits of the Motors," which I got for $12 on Amazon. The Motors first caught my attention on the recently released "No Thanks! The Rhino Punk Compilation." It includes Dancing the Night Away, which famed British DJ John Peel. Is an excellent punk primer with some great tracks, but there’s nothing punk about the Motors except their years of operation. Para; 1:20 PM.

Sunday, January 30, 2005. Woop woop wah wah beep beep. One of the regular Stylus features. Is the Singles Going Steady US Jukebox. The weekly rundown hits up new US chart entries, and a half-dozen or so writers (including yours truly) rank them before the scores are averaged. Everyone more or less agreed on the Sum 41. Songs (although I was surprised Simple Plan got such nasty marks it’s almost. A good song). We broke in opposite directions on piano man John Legend. And ghetto crooner Akon. Para; 10:42 PM.
