PLAGIARISM!

Andrew won because he connects with each and every fan on a level talentless morons like Jet can only dream of. I mean, the first 1000 people to pre-order the album on Amazon got a legitimate phone call from him. And everyone I know who has met him says he's the nicest guy in the world. Platypusfool and I voting like men posessed would have helped clinch it too.

I'm not even convinced Kane wins. And even if he does, boy, am I impressed.

Can we stop talking about MTV now? Let's shout about The Thrills instead. So yeah, I hate The Thrills and stuff. Man, this shit be FRESH~!

Being in the UK I don't have access to TNA yet, but I'll say that Haas/Benjamin have really started to grow on me, they adjusted to their climate perfectly in a fairly short space of time.

Kimono fucking My fucking House.

Oooooh.....not the jacket! Not the jacket!

I don't really resent him, he's a weightlifting talent, he'll be fine doing that when his contract FINALLY runs out, and he was basically clawed into the business by Vince and so I say get your money while you can, big fella, and prove what an idiot McMahon is. Just, try to do it in a non-televised capacity.

Bah! Not good enough! I want all the other 'bands' that plague my existence to have a diva moment and hate each other! I'm off to go and stir shit among Athlete and The Thrills. Heh.

Yes. I have put off getting The Elder long enough. Everyone here must pledge to buy it.

You know, I didn't listen to The Wolf yesterday, making this spin even more euphoric. And now for some Duck Stab. I must point out that Primus deserve all the credit in the world for such a dead-on cover of 'Sinister Exaggerator'.

All the good albums that came out last year didn't find their way into my collection until about halfway through this year. Does Alice by Tom Waits count? If not, I'm hugely torn between Demons Dance Alone by The Residents and Lil' Beehoven by SPARKS~! Because both manage to be pop albums, but unlike anything either artist (or anyone else) has come out with before, adding so much to music whilst having broad appeal. As for this year, AWK is kicking some ass thus far. British Sea Power and The Locust have impressed.

The thing about Johnny Cash is, I have yet to meet anyone who doesn't like him. He appeals to practically everyone. Respect.

Hey, let's do a concept album about elves! That notion in itself has always made me want to hear The Elder.

Ozzy for about the last 20 years.

Awww my little soldier's so happy....

Uhuhuhuh. I wonder how far down the 'music folder champion' ladder I am. I would assume that the judges are all biased against Go 2. Bah.

Sparks - 'Kimono My House' I FOUND IT! AHAHAHAHAHA!

Will do. It's a fine month for gigs, october. Andrew, British Sea Power, The Darkness, Frank Black, Sikth (on halloween)...

The ending of 'Totally Stupid' nearly caused me to lose it. Wow. Also, the photograph of him at the piano on the back page of the sleeve is the most beautiful thing I have ever seen.

What's the point? If you've ever seen Frank Black do the pixies stuff live, you'd know it's not necessary. A new album might be interesting, because he's matured as a songwriter over the years, but eh.

Morrissey's live performance of 'We'll Let You Know' off 'Beethoven Was Deaf'. More because of the vocals though, obviously. The Mosquito Song by QOTSA is a nice one. Frank Black...

I keep asking this, but have any of you U.S. rap types heard anything by a guy called Roots Manuva? For my money he's the best rapper in the UK right now. Check out 'Witness: One Hope', from his album 'Run come save me'. He covered Yellow Submarine too. That was cool.

When I bought this album, I listened to it 5 times in 5 hours. It has saved my life.

You know, I'm gonna get Sparks tattooed on my back.

Frank Black and the Catholics - 'Show me your tears' It's not particularly good, but his live show still owns (OCT 5th~!) and I'm still pissed at the critics for not giving 'Dog in the Sand' and 'Black Letter Days' half the credit they deserve. Grrr.
