"Earlier this week I was blessed with an absolutely crippling case of insomnia and, in my dazed, "can't fucking believe I'm awake at 6am" state, I figured I'd give that darned new Coldplay record a shot.

"Why are the ratings so low? It's a great follow up to a rock opera classic." Reply
"James Brown's absolute highpoint is hard to pinpoint, as he released such a gigantic amount of records in his golden age, and for that same reason the records themselves were often filled with uninteresting fillers plus unimaginative reruns. To finish off the TV analogy they invented the album eq..." [+] Reply
