I am a full supporter of gay marriage, but from a legal standpoint, it was the correct decision. California voters have a right to change their constitution via referendum, and the supreme court is right to decide they have no right to interfere with that. It is terrible that California voters...

Certainly not a style of music that I really like, but something that I see emerging in hipster circles are lo-fi bands with pop sensibilities. Said another way, these are basically garage rock bands that combine elements of dream pop and shoegaze. Some examples that come to mind: Wavves The...

When I joined this forum four years ago, U2 was probably my third or fourth favorite band, behind Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, and the Who. Since then, my tastes have undergone quite an evolution. Although I still thoroughly enjoy U2, them, and most of my other old time favorites (see above)...

Thanks for the site. After looking at some of the solutions and seeing that we had already tried (without success) most of them, we ended up deciding to temporarily place Ellie with my Uncle's family until the house sells, then bring her back for the new house and perhaps get her a behaviorist...

Dear Interference, I need your help. My family cat, Ellie, has mostly been a wonderful cat. She's cute, soft, and extraordinarily affectionate. She's been known to spend hour's at a time purring on someone's lap or lying on their stomach while they sleep. There's just one problem: She...

I enjoy Lazy Eye, but the rest of Carnavas was unbearably awful to me. I probably won't listen to Swoon unless it gets highly favorable reviews from everyone.

^^^ or at the very least, it's the best song on their new album

Best album of the year so far.:up:

Upon my first five listens of this album, I found it bland, cold, and painfully repetitive. As I've continued to listen to it, some of the more infectious/poppy moments have started to become more apparent to me (My Girls), and I'm starting to get a warmer feel from the atmospheres. Right now...

Is Bon Iver's album considered a 2008 release? I thought it was released in 2007? If not, it would probably be in my top 5 for this year.

1. TV On the Radio-Dear Science, 2. Shearwater-Rook 3. Okkervil River-The Stand Ins 4. Tallest Man on Earth-Shallow Graves 5. Fleet Foxes-Fleet Foxes 6. Max Richter-24 Postcards in Full Colour 7. Portishead-Third 8. Spiritualized-Songs in A&E 9. Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds-Dig, Lazarus, Dig...

I don't like this Joanna Newsom bashing:sad: I know her voice is a little strange; but her harp playing is beautiful, her lyrics are head and shoulders above anyone else, and the musical arrangements are interesting and unique. At the very least, I don't think it should be considered funny to...

One of my favorite albums from last year

In short, yes.
