This is an interesting article about another interesting article. I imagine it must be fun to rip apart the great records that paved the way for most of these imbeciles, but after a while it starts to sound like a hipster bitching about a record just because other people actually like it. As the first article points out, there really isn't much solid ground for these "artists" to stand on as they bitch and moan about Pet Sounds and Nevermind. I can get behind the arguments against Neon Bible; I still don't understand what is so fucking great about the Arcade Fire. But for the most part the arguments just don't hold water. Anyway, read both articles, watch American Hardcore, read Our Band Could Be Your Life, and go eat a piece of fruit.
