Also, due to yesterday the server going down I was not able to announce that the 10th of April was the 32nd anniversary of PiL's "Flowers of Romance" and the 13th anniversary of The Hives' "Veni Vidi Vicious"
Alright,

Yesterday in music (4/10), Paul McCartney announced that The Beatles were breaking up. Sorry to mismatch dates, but you didn't have one yesterday.

Depending on who you are, that is either a mournful day or a celebratory one. But yeah, for me I would say it had to end, and it did before they started sucking, so YAY!

I like both Disintegration and Faith lots; both are truly solid albums, but I have to say that Disntegration has better stand-alone songs. That being said, Pornography has been my favorite Cure album for some time...
As far as Pavement, I also incredibly enjoy Wowee Zowee, but it doesn't hold a candle to Crooked Rain, Crooked Rain or even Slanted and Enchanted, in my opinion.

Love your taste! Yeah I personally may just have not been in the right state of mind for Disintegration last time I heard it. I finally checked it out because of the adoration it seems to get all over this site. I remember at about 45 minutes wondering, as I read a book, what is so special about this? I agree i remember it had some really cool stand out tracks. Need to revisit eventually. Way way interested in Pornography. That doesn't sound right. No, but I will give that a try if it's like Faith ill probably love it.
And yeah, Crooked Rain is so brilliant! That is the only Pavement album in my chart. Like Slanted and Wnchanted a lot as well. Need to delve deeper into Wowee Zowee.
