Far less to see and the song is not nearly as catchy, but I enjoyed this a whole hell of a lot more than ASAP's "Wild for the Night"

I found transference massively disappointing, but Trouble Come Running is a good song.

It's basically the equivalent of busting up a big house party before it starts.

Last year's Googa Mooga was a total cluster fuck on a never before seen level, but I do love the Burger Joint.

Notice how all the trolls go away when there's no one to downvote them?

Guys, I know we all silently agreed a while ago to not like Lana Del Rey, but I think I might actually think this is kind of okay.

Full disclosure: I didn't read a word of this post, but that album art is disturbing. Like, haunt my nightmares in NYC fucking disturbing as hell.

Comments like this make me wish I could "downvote". What kind of unhappy troll can't have a good time at a wedding? I mean, seriously. Get out more, David, there's more to life than being snarky on the internets.

I get where you're coming from with the "it's sacrilege" but really, it's only sin, not sacrilege. But it's totally possible the director didn't realize this or didn't care.

I don't get why they shoot the priest, if they were all sleeping with her too.

I like this song a lot, and the video looks good, but I hate the glorification of gang culture in third world countries that it celebrates. ASAP went down the D.R. and played big bad gangster because he thought it was cool. Juxtaposing the fake gun toting (which I'm thinking was an act because how close ASAP actually was to it, but even if it was real, it still wasn't cool) with the very REAL slum life people live in down there rubbed me the completely the wrong way. Gang bangers are not fucking cool, especially when they run a slum.

Like the music. From what I've seen of the movie it looks pretty predictable, still could be alright though, I guess.

Minor note, but I'm pretty sure it's the bass player that beats up the Nazi, not the singer.

No problem. I don't really worry too much about all that too much anyway.

I mean if you like it that's fine. I think that the songs suffer from the length though.

So, JT, you know I think you're the bee's knees, but these seven and eight minute songs are ridiculous. Real it in, dude!

It was originally a very different and bad picture of Ryan Adams. Which they changed, smart ass.

As for Macklemore, I think, with the song "Thrift Shop" anyway, it is just a case of people taking something to seriously. I mean it's supposed to be a funny song, and people complain about class warfare? Similar to the bogus "Is the Harlem Shake racist?" backlash (which has since mostly gone away now that several videos featuring black persons have surfaced). Macklemore ain't Shakespeare reborn but I feel that's a clear case of haters gotta hate.

The thing that bothers me the most about Mumford is something about the songwriter struck me as disingenuous. I realize that this probably isn't fair, I don't know them personally. But it feels more calculated than sincere. I honestly thought I was "one of the few" with my early distaste for them, and I was surprised as anyone to see the backlash on this sight when Tom did the write up. But it has nothing to do with "cool" or "not cool" or "too cool" for me. It's about the music. Something about Mumford's music to me feels forced, I'm not begrudging anyone who likes it, but I'm not going to.

I thought this was weird, then I read it was directed by Eric Wareheim and it all makes sense.

Well, to be fair, what's the point of having a top 10 article when everyone already knows what its gonna be? It's provocative, Wrong, but provocative.

This is truly a masterpiece of journalism. They take a slightly bizarre endorsement of an obscure product by a semi-obscure artist - neither of which I care much about - and turn it into a scintillating, sordid, and fascinating piece that's a lot of fun. Bravo, Michael Nelson!
