    I didn't realize that you had a sample that accounted for all of the biases that would arise from the statistical analysis of female attractiveness, were then able to apply an unbiased value to Annie here using this universal rubric, and then knew the distribution with enough familiarity to spit out a percentile for me.

    Thank god we have Chrono here to set us straight with the facts.

    More a reference to boarding's past lives than the video game.

    In any case, let's hereby declare Annie Clark's attractiveness irrelevant.

    annie clark is a lovely human inside and out

    i like the terje album - i mean the guy is basically MVP of the decade, or at least close to it - but i think i am allowed to be a little bit puzzled or dismayed when the songs we hadn't heard from the album are not as dancefloor-ready as the songs we had heard - a classic emeli sandé move

    i didn't say you weren't

    i said it was bullshit to say that someone shouldn't listen to the album because some new tracks aren't as good as some old tracks

    hnng this is exactly the kind of thing I keep reading and it makes me not want to even bother with it

    yeah, this is total bullshit. as i said, the record is almost too eclectic for its own good. but i guess, Monotony, if you don't think "Leisure Suit Preben" or "Svensk Sas" are dope then you're not gonna like this record. this dude Terje is recreating classic sounds and classic vibes with a totally out of left field sonic palate. he's got a truckload of amazing piano sounds. i guess people are reacting negatively to the fact that the new tracks aren't all up the same "Scandanavian space disco" alley that he and others have been doing for years and years, but i think it's time to accept a little progression. upon repeated listens, what stands out is the strength of the rhythm section. for electronic music that has such a strong emphasis on big sounding melodic lines, the quality of the drum tracks and sounds is phenomenal. one of my personal favorites "Alfonso Muskedunder" is a tour de force of dynamic rhythms. i just love the lounge music aesthetic and i guess others don't.

    comparing anything to "Inspector Norse" is just unfair.

    also what the fuck does "hnng" mean?

     iwantsomeofthat 

    part of it is that I'm not a huge fan of his to begin with! so the prospect of getting "strandbar and inspector norse + some other stuff that isn't as good" doesn't sound all that appealing -- and yeah that's a bit reductive, but I don't really give a shit. and yes, "the lounge music aesthetic" is not something I'm constantly on the lookout for.

    mind I haven't heard it yet!

    I like Mac DeMarco but he doesn't strike me as an artist who's going to grow much, if at all.

    Haven't heard Salad Days yet.

    if he puts out another few records that are as enjoyable as 2 and this one, I'll have absolutely no problem with it.

    whether or not he has some kind of "masterpiece" in him remains to be seen I think. Dude is like 23, right?

    I felt like the Congregation to 1965 run was an amazing collection of songs that produced an aura about this band that was only meant for that snapshot in time. Maybe it's because each of those albums represents something to me on a personal level.

    This album destroys that aura. I've listened to it about 9 or 10 times and the music isn't bad. But I hate the fact it exists and they'll tour it.

    Its a fine follow up to 1965, I think.

    is it as good as the Congregation - 1965 run, no, but it for sure doesn't destroy any of their past aura.

    I don't find her especially attractive but I at least understand her appeal. It wouldn't hurt any if she put on a few pounds but who really gives a shit.
