As we say in Atlanta, it's "been a minute" since anything of value has been posted... musically speaking, of course. In anticipation of Obama's State of the Union Address tonight, we offer up a similar structure to let you know what you can expect in the future (and by you, I literally mean, "You... Chrissy... this is what you can expect from me"):1. Lil' Wayne Quote of the Day - Discontinued
As they say, our eyes were bigger than our stomachs on that one... and although that's anatomically ridiculous, the metaphor holds true (as long as you equate "reading Lil' Wayne lyrics" to "eating"). But fear not, I promise that, until Audra decides I'm dead weight, I'll push Weezy F. as much as possible. The Greatest Rapper Alive will not go unnoticed.
2. Concert Reviews
If you're foolish enough to ignore recommendations for concerts, you'll still be able to read about them. For every show attended, a comprehensive review will go up. That's a fact.
3. Lyrical Criticism
Some bands have phenomenal lyrics that actually tell cool and interesting stories. Some bands have ridiculously shallow lyrics that basically act as filler for the sound. Some bands are Coldplay. It's our duty to analyze the words of our musical artists and delve into the meanings (either intended or implied).
4. Reviews/Bios
Everyone goes through listening "phases" with bands. We'll get into older albums as well as review new stuff that we're really excited about (Spoiler alert: a glowing review of Kelly Clarkson is forthcoming).
5. Music on TV
It'll continue in its current form. Additionally, if you hear of something else that's awesome, let us know and we'll link to it so others can download it easily from iTunes (or from Limewire, whatever).
That's about it. Yes, I realize this is still not a real post, but things are a little busy... people INSIST that you have to know a lot of stuff to be a doctor. I'm not convinced (since Wikipedia has all the answers), but failing out would be embarassing. Just so this isn't completely worthless, here's a great song (Colin Meloy covering Joanna Newsom's "Bridges and Balloons"... double indie points!) for your listening enjoyment. Peace.
I request two reviews. First, Ronnie Lane and Pete Townshend's "Rough Mix" beause you pressured me into buying it in a late night stupor 5 years ago and I think that would only be fair. Second, I request a review of Damien Rice's album "O". You've never really had much to say about that album, but I think you probably would given the chance.
