I'm hoping that through serendipity, all of the artists selecting songs pick "Mildred Pierce". over and over and over.

I never thought Ian McKay was cool. He seems like kind of a preachy spaz and I don't like the bands he's been in.

If you're not taking the piss on this one, I just interviewed the guy, and he was one very funny, very sincere and helluva decent fellow. Completely serious.

I'm talking laugh out loud funny. Also, one of the most insightful and plain intelligent cats I've ever interviewed.

Obviously, we are not the first/last human beings to have this argument about a person that either of us truly know. So let's just cry together and eat ice cream.

Why don't don't you go write a song about it Chris?

1. Sonic Youth's last three albums are better then any album you have ever made.

2. You can hate their music due to their business practices if it makes you feel better.

3. Is this even true? I still kind of hope not, cause it might make me feel better to talk a little shit about it, what with their music being better then mine and Starbucks making shitty coffee.......eh?

Fixed it for you.

Sonic Youth is running the risk of becoming a parody, if they aren't already. Why are we still giving a shit about Sonic Youth?
