yeah, i read that article when it came out in late march. i'm a pop fan, and i like a lot of the songs and artists mentioned in the article, but . . .

you're right. that comment was colored by the fact that, lately, i've been listening to a lot of sludgy drone-ish stuff. a phase, i think.

good point. still, music can be fairly characterized as "drone," even when it has a significant amount of other elements built into it. the genre label is a function of the relative emphasis of the drone element, and the overall vibe (if it has a f…

well, there's elements of drone in a lot of music, including music that may be accessible, at least relatively so. a lot of rock music has drone-elements in it. for instance, there's a drone element to in What are you listening to right now?

well, yeah, earth and bruce springsteen are worlds apart, in terms of composition, tone, texture, approach. build.
actually, come to think of it, nebraska-era springsteen fronting earth might actually work. -

lots of different kinds of drone, ranging from icy to warm to angry. i'd try metal-drone, like earth's miami morning comedown ii. it's lumb… -
i've never really followed ween, but i think i may love them forever for this early video. even my 11 year-old daughter sings this song.

yeah. i hate pearl jam, the RHCP, and the pumpkins with the heat of a thouusand exploding supernovas. but some of those others look intriguing. i like the idea of tom waits more than i've loved his work, but i know a lot of people rave about …

well, i'm open to being introduced to great albums of the 90s. i'll grant you a few yo la tengos are hot stuff. maybe pavement? they've never really been my thing, except for that one amazing ballad, which is the sound of beauty collapsing. wait, l…

@ germanprof: i, too, have a cyann & ben album! (spring, i think). not sure i've ever listened to it. is that one good?
@amclark: that john maus album is … -
oh, let me add "50s" to that list of great decades for rock.

i now realize there were some interesting things happening in the 90s, e.g., the pastoral-rock vibe of yo la tengo; the continuation of the 80s snarl of dinosaur jr.; obviously the "everybody-knows-this-but-it-is-still-godhead-great" nirvana (tho i …

hoo-boy, those titles in the "90s essentials sale" make me think the 90s were fundamentally inessential.

a writer tweeted yesterday that, with the bulls' immediate future in limbo cuz of rose's injury and boston likely rebuilding after this season, indiana -- with their youth, size and physical play -- may emerge as the heat's main competition in the e…

whoop whoop.

that sex-worker band has a great, dangerous-sounding name, and an interesting, dangerous-looking vibe to their videos.
but i just don't feel the music. like a lot of stuff i've heard these days, it doesn't excite, repel or capture attent… -

if bosh is back, and miami is otherwise healthy, heat v. spurs/thunder would be a helluva series! -

somewhere along the line, this heat-pacers series got compelling. and really physical.
if UD is out for game 6, and if west and george play, i think it's coming back to miami for a deciding 7th game. -
