Tumblr, apparently
- White Musician: Poetry
- Black Musician: Unintelligible Garbage
- Bon Iver: And I told you to be patient, and I told you to be fine. I told you to be balanced, and I told you to be kind, but now all your love is wasted. And then who the hell was I?
- Death Cab: So one last touch and then you'll go and we'll pretend that it meant something so much more. But it was vile, and it was cheap and you are beautiful but you don't mean a thing to me. Yeah, you are beautiful but you don't mean a thing to me
- Radiohead: But I can't help the feeling I could blow through the ceiling if I just turn and run. And it wears me out... It wears me out. If I could be who you wanted, if I could be who you wanted all the time... all the time.
- Brand New: You are calm and reposed, let your beauty unfold. Pale white like the skin stretched over your bones, spring keeps you ever close. You are secondhand smoke, you are so fragile and thin standing trial for your sins. Holding onto yourself the best you can. You are the smell before rain, you are the blood in my veins.
- Nicki Minaj: You a stupid hoe, you a you a stupid hoe. You a stupid hoe, you a you a stupid hoe. You a stupid hoe, you a you a stupid hoe. You a stupid hoe, you a you a stupid hoe. You a stupid hoe, yeah you a you a stupid hoe.You a stupid hoe you a you a stupid hoe. You stupid stupid, you a stupid hoe
- ugh ugh ugh shut up
i really want to start a tumblr where i overlay community quotes on parks and rec screencaps
The Guardian | Why records should face the vinyl curtain →
guardian.co.uk
Ask yourself this: Do you know anybody who still buys vinyl that isn’t a total dick?
Grrr!
i’m really more of a bitch, if anything
i’m definitely not a vinyl snob and i don’t even have my turntable hooked up, and when i do i see pops and crackles as something to be avoided rather than fetishized…… but….… give me ALL the pops and crackles and hiss and hum in the world over poorly encoded MP3s that make cymbals and all high-end sound like hot garbage.
SOB SOB I AM A VINYL SNOB
Except actually no I’m not because I don’t mind listening to MP3s and can’t tell the difference between them and ~*~**~lossless~*~*
I just like the whole ceremony of putting on a record and plugging in my stereo and lying down on the floor and staring at the ceiling
nevermind going to the record store and searching through the stacks and smelling old acid decayed paper and trading flirty jabs with the kid behind the counter with the ridiculous bird’s nest hair
I like vinyl because they’re pretty and im terrified that my computer will break and lose all my music.
“I still feel that there is too much music in the world. I’m not convinced that we need to make any more music. I read this statistic that said 75% of music on iTunes has never been downloaded once. It’s depressing, but it also makes you think that we should stop making music until we listen to it all, and then we should start again.”

Experimental producer Matthew Herbert on the current state of music in our latest 5-10-15-20 interview. (via pitchfork)
Matt Herbert hates the Tyranny of New like I do
- Led Zeppelin- 1969: If the sun refused to shine, I would still be loving you. When mountains crumble to the sea, there will still be you and me. Kind woman, I give you my all, Kind woman, nothing more.
- Nicki Minaj- 2011: You a stupid hoe, you a, you a stupid hoe, you a stupid hoe, you a stupid hoe, you a stupid hoe, (yeah) you a, you a stupid hoe, you a stupid hoe, you a, you a stupid hoe (stupid, stupid), you a stupid hoe, you a, you a stupid hoe (stupid, stupid), you a stupid hoe, you a, you a stupid hoe (stupid, stupid) (stupid, stupid)
- UGH this is the dumbest mentality
to people send postcards to their work that say “san francisco is fun, but there are too many gays!!” like my sexual harassment seminar said
