Tyler, The Creator @ The Zoo, Brisbane, 05.06.11

Born This Way is Lady Gaga’s Be Here Now. It is bloated and too full of itself.

Depeche Mode: the Martin Luther Kings of Synthpop

It is common knowledge that there are three pivotal moments in the history of US race relations.

No Anchor – Real Pain Supernova (self-released)

Listening to No Anchor, it’s hard not to hear a weaker, less interesting version of their heroes.

Crystal Stilts @ Farm 255, Athens GA, 24.04.11

Somewhere along the line, apparently, Crystal Pepsi and I developed different ideas of what rock music could/should/would do.
