omg they hit the second tower!!!!

Manson sucks, Korn sucks. Rock is dead. I wish this was still '83 when the music was real, man.

Goodnight sweet prince.

i like it when jonathan kornman(tm) does funny stuff with his mouth

idk this year was kinda dull not a lot of memorable albums

>no good releases this year
music is so over.

fucking shit this is the year Chappell Roan is born

Feature: "The lonely, ever uncool, always corny piano man." Bio: "Liam Hayes' new record is not just about pop, it IS pop in the classic (circa 1973) sense of the term." Wha? Has Chicago moved to another planet? (Again?) Hayes's closest relative by far is Palace Inc. CEO Will Oldham whittling mountain music down to a doleful whisper. If he's anything, and his aesthetic is so attenuated you have to wonder, he's cool, and if his aesthetic is about anything it's about being about. Hayes's snaillike, lachrymose presongs resemble no pop in history, much less 1973. (1973?) And while it's possible to imagine a piano man this anonymously self-absorbed, no cocktail lounge would permit him to sing--unless he owned it, I guess. C+

>I DON'T KNOW HOW OR WHY
>AND I'LL NEVER KNOW >WHHHHHHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEENNNNNNNNNNN

If only the absurd aura of artistic respectability surrounding this arrant self-promoter would teach us that not every icon deserves a think piece, that it's no big deal to have a higher IQ than Ozzy Osbourne, that the Road of Excess leads to the Palace Theater. Instead, his banned-in-Wal-Mart slipcase job will fade into the haze of records people found interesting at the time. Its strategy is to camouflage the feebleness of La Manson's vocal affect by pretending it's deliberate--one more depersonalizing production device with which to flatten willing cerebella whilst confronting humankind's alienation, amorality, and failure to have a good time on Saturday night. Catchiest songs: "The Dope Show" and "I Don't Like the Drugs (But the Drugs Like Me)." Duh. C+

lol accurate

IT'S BEEN

Wu-Tang Forever not winning Rap Album of the Year will mark the decline of HipHop forever. Especially losing to a shitty forgettable Puff Album.

Against what some are saying The Fall isn't over 'cause the group is basically MES and granny on bongos.

he's right. Manson was the ultimate grifter and conman.

Wilson's genius has never been as indelible or universal as worshippers believe. Generating illusions of eternal sunlight or crafting frames for crackpot solipsism, he was magical; stripped by Don Was or cambered by Van Dyke Parks, he was at least interesting. Submitting to adult-contempo tycoon Joe Thomas, however, he's just what you'd fear: a middle-aged pop pro who's proud he's no longer nuts and knows even less about the world than when he was. The lead cut has a happy tune, the dark finale some dysfunctional intimations. In between, he makes too much of attendant hacks and gestures at old glories from a failing high end. C
