Popular music.
Anyone noticed that Paloma Faith is the same as Gin Wigmore who's a rip off of Duffy and Gabriela Cilmi who are rip off's of Amy Winehouse who was ripping off 50's and 60's jazz pop?

Wolfmother's new album translated
There's a lot of hyperbole flying around in the wake of Wolfmother's new album 'Cosmic Egg'.
After hearing the album a few times I realised there is in fact a code in the reviews, and the actual translation
goes something like this:
'Sprawling': Too long.
'Classic Rock': Plagiarism, eg NIB - Black Sabbath, Start me Up - Rolling Stones, etc.
'Psychedelic': Solos, without great technical ability or melody. Usually accompanied by pointless wailing.
'Good': Bad
'any positive adjectives': completely ordinary
The level of production on this album is extraordinary, purely because Alan Moulder is a genius (producer of NIN, Smashing Pumpkins, My Bloody Valentine) but that doesn't make up for the ordinary song writing. What a waste. BOOM!
