Pitchfork’s Stephen Deusner concluded, “These songs are so good and so moving that they only give us stupid, stubborn hope,” giving the album [...]

Playing to at least 35,000 attendees Rage Against The Machine played its only scheduled Midwest date of the year last Friday at the Alpine Valley Music Theatre.

A video featuring Common alternating between a white tuxedo and a “robot is the future” t-shirt, Lily Allen in a spacesuit and Jeremy Piven in an ultra-brief finger pointing cameo…not necessarily the makings for best video ever, but by no means a bad video.
Best Week Ever’s Dan Hopper commented yesterday on the seemingly impossibility of just kinda not loving M.I.A., but not hating her, “I wish I could say I had a stronger position on the great M.I.A. debate — everyone seems to love her or hate her, but I think she’s just kind of cool n’ whatever.

VBS recently produced a short series which followed director Spike Jonze through London as he discussed a variety of issues with Maya Arulpragasam (aka M.I.A.).
