Liz Phair on Why Lana Del Rey Scares Rock’s Boys...
Rolling Stone asked me to speak about Lana Del Rey. I wanted to know how big my participation in the piece would be–was it substantial or just a quote? Just a quote, they said, to which I replied that I wasn’t super interested. Which was a lie. I have a lot to say about her, but no sound bites.

Correction to Murk Avenue: Ice Cube's 'Good Day'... →

Goodbye, Lookout! Records: A Tribute in 10 Songs
So here is an(other) article about the demise (NOOO!) of the infamous Lookout! records… now, I am a much bigger fan of Alternative Tentacles, who actually sent me my first collage poster at the tender young age of 16, but Lookout! has always had a soft spot in my heart. Kerplunk was a damn fine record, as was that OpIvy one. Anyway, somebody did much more research than I will ever do and you...

Watchremember when we had a president who puked at state dinners? or looked like this?
i think it’s safe to say Mitt or Newt (are those their real names, even??) couldn’t squeeze out a little Al Green if their very lives depended upon it.

I generally felt ‘excited’ about the new M83 album, but I have been trying to give it a few ‘spins’ [via SpotifyTunes] to try to figure out what it is all abt. It seems like critics are ‘creaming their pants’ over the new album. M83’s usual...
