So you think this guys a Pearl Jam fan or not? ;)
This guy has Binaural as #2 best album of the decade so he's probably a hipster
Hmmm, well I'm not sure a hipster would love Sirens that much.... Which makes me wonder, what's the over/under on how many times Pitchfork will use the word "cheesy" in their review for Lightning Bolt?
I'm pretty sure Antiquiet is trying to be the anti-Pitchfork considering that this URL will take you to their site:
http://pitchforkcaneatadick.com

That made me a fan of theirs...

This made me like them even more. Pitchfork can definitely eat a dick. Tastes and coverage aside, their writing sucks balls. There's better writers on pearl jam message boards (x10) than on Pitchfork. All they've got going for them is effective creation of some "mystique".

What pisses me off about this thread is that I have lots to say about the new songs, but posting it would be a waste of keystrokes. By the time I hit "submit" there are two more pages of posts that make me want to stab myself in the belly button with a broken plastic fork.

yep, im sad we missed it
On September 3rd, Harmless had around 5800 posts. That was 16 days ago. How could we have known he was going to post over 4000 times in two weeks?
What the fuck? What am I doing with my life?
Wow man. That's got to be a fucking record of some kind. :shock:
I kinda feel like I may have set a record right around the time I was modded and S/T was coming out, but whatever I did Harmless shattered.

it was my idea but I asked you to write it. The idea was "I've been posting" but dragged out. you said it wouldn't work as a whole phrase. I agreed and then just did the one phrase myself.

True story.
