Shut Up, Dude: This Week’s Best And Worst Comments

It's 4/20, which means it's time to check in on the highest and lowest rated comments of the week! It also means another Coachella weekend is upon us. Are you going to that? Will Bon Iver perform with Hologram Levon Helm? (Boo! Too soon!) What about Record Store Day tomorrow? Have you saved your allowance for that? What about brunch? Are you at least going to brunch? It's springtime, go outside this weekend -- Games Of Thrones will wait. But first, check out these awesome and terrible comments. You'll never guess who scored lowest.

Simultaneously demonstrating how much people love reasonable comments on lists and how much they hate double posts.

First she gets removed from the line-up in 2009.

Now she can’t even make the 2013 hologram lineup?

Guys, I’m worried about Amy Winehouse.

"“Ekki Múkk,” though, isn’t much like the Icelandic group’s best known songs — the types of songs that score Wes Anderson movies —"

Goddamnit Stereogum... I miss the old guys who actually listened to the music they were posting about.

I'm not as strong a fan of Spiritualized as the reviewer. I sometimes find the noise and experimentation self-indulgent, "noise for noise's sake" rather than serving the music. But I certainly agree with the review on this album, especially the line "paralyzingly gorgeous." Well put! My review is at http://www.kammentary.com/2012/04/review-sweet-heart-sweet-light-by.html

If you like Coachella, you might like my blog, Rhymes and Reasons. It’s a series of interviews with hip-hop heads who discuss their lives and a few songs that matter to them. Pretty powerful stuff. Check’em out here:
