Hey Neville, saying that Blender went out of business doesn’t make RS a better magazine.

What will I do now? Probably go read about music on http://www.antiquiet.com or some other source that doesn’t put lame bullshit on the cover to sell magazines, but instead tries to tell me, the curious music consumer, about new music that I may not know about yet.

Btw, I looked up your ip in my logs and it said you found the site by searching, and i’m not even kidding:

Rolling Stone will only cover the new movie-BASTARDS!

Oddest search query i’ve ever seen. Why the dash? Why the caps? I see you commented on my new post about health care as well. I’m sure genius awaits.

For music, I like to read Blender. They cover a pretty nice variety of genres, and because the stories aren’t that long, they cover a lot of ground in one issue. Plus they don’t take themselves too seriously, which Rolling Stone is hugely guilty of.

Hey moron, Blender is no more; Rolling Stone is still here. What are you going to do now?

They gave Merriweather Post Pavilion 3 1/2 out of 5, comparing it to Kraftwerk and The Greatful Dead. Irrelevant? Mmmmm.. Yeah, I think so.

RS must be doing something right to Piss off you folks so beautifully. Yes it knows where it stands ideologically, and sells that stand courageously in a land of cowards.
My only gripe with the Rag is that it should be free, considering the amount of ad it carries.
