i don’t care what any of you bitches say. if i went to a bar/club and this song: kanye west - “stronger”, was playing on repeat the entire night, i would not even care. why? because i am listening to this song on repeat for like the last six hours as i drink coors light and dance to myself. omfg this song is a slice of heaven. i dont even know how to describe it. i would probalby describe it as basically pure awesomeness yep, that is how i would describe it.

zomg hello my lovelies. here are some recent happenings that you should know about:

• the new against me! album (new wave) is leaked. it is pretty good.. so far i don’t think i like it as well as the eternal cowboy but it is still good nonetheless. also, it is produced by butch vig. also, there is (OMFG!@!@!!) a track featuring tegan quin (“borne on the fm waves of the heart”).

• eagle vs. shark is completely hilarious. don’t listen to the reviews saying it ripped napoleon dynamite (it didn’t). the only similarities they share are awkward characters and lots of neo-retro products. watch this movie.

• the blogz0r is celebrating its 1-year anniversary this week!!! hoorah~! honestly i am somewhat surprised i managed to keep posting for an entire year. but you, the reader(s?), have provided the support i needed to continue writing. yes, it’s been sporadic at times (like a nice case of herpes, with breakouts and dormancies, i know). BUT, i have found my stride, and the blogz0r will continue to roll on. the blogz0r’s very first article (on how much pitchfork sucks) can be found right here.

• walking six blocks to work in 115-degree heat really, really sucks :’(

• my fantasy baseball team is destroying so far this season. which rules, since yahoo! screwed me over in the first round by autopicking jimmy rollins as the #3 overall pick (wtf).

• i hate 4th of July

• superbad apparently still exists. awesome.

• kanye west’s new song “stronger” is so effing good omfg. kanye + daft punk ftw!!

queens of the stone age covering “white wedding” is pretty much awesome. for some reason it makes me want to go to a thrift store (not the cool hipster kind, but like, goodwill or something) to buy some bugle boy t-shirts and then probably take my old dog for a walk around the neighborhood as i remember the cleveland indians’ 1991 roster and wonder what ever happened to that weird fat kid that stole all my pencils in 7th grade and keyed the principal’s car.

okay, so unlike certain people (*cough*sebastian*cough*) i actually loves me some vintage smashing pumpkins action. siamese dream remains one of my favorite albums of all time, i DO still
love mellon collie and the infinite sadness, i LOVE adore and machina: the machines of god had some awesome (and also some crappy) songs.

but then, something happened. i don’t even know what. i think basically what happened is that billy corgan started thinking he was better than he was. yeah that is pretty much it. while billy may have been the posterchild of 90s alternative rock, he has never evolved into the 21st century like everyone else. OH, and also he became a megalomaniac who thinks his vocals deserve to be a million times louder than the rest of the instruments. ARE THERE EVEN ANY OTHER INSTRUMENTS BESIDES BILLY’S WHINY VOICE ON THIS ALBUM BECAUSE I SURE DON’T HEAR ANY!!!!@!@@?? this record is seriously really crappy. like lamez-style crappy. it would be like 400x better if billy would just turn the vocals volume down from 23 to at least 9 or something. and another thing: this is probably the WORST album cover art i have EVEr seen in my entire life. billy: when did you turn into such a huge douchcicle ?? you need to stfu and get bent. stop making music. you are no longer good at it, and this album will (un??)fortunately completely destroy your reputation as one of the greatest songwriters of the 90s.

and lastly: jimmy chamberlin is still one of the greatest drummers in rock ‘n’ roll history.

ummm… wtf? my roommate just put on wired all wrong’s 2006 debut album (break out the battle tapes), and by the second song i was like dude this sounds like the dude from self. wellll, apparently matt mahaffey (of self) and jeff turzo (of god lives underwater) formed this band ???? and no one told me??? basically, this album takes all the good parts from self and all the good parts from god lives underwater and mixes them into one radical industrialized bag of pure awesomeness. matt’s vocals are totally rock’d out and he sounds more like a rockstar than ever. “you’re freakin me out girl” sounds exactly like what i wish justin timberlake sounded like. basically what he would sound like if he was totally cool. the whole album just rocks out with its cock out.
