Red Meat: Political

I could give a shit less about the Americans, but finally Advent Children is coming out.

So I was reading Rallblog as I often do and I saw this post...

BLM, we can do this.

So I made the mistake of watching the Grammys again last night. Almost every time I watch this sorry excuse for an awards show, I get pissed of and end up hating myself everything in the morning. The sad thing is, I know how the awards are goiing to go even before turning them on yet I'm still stupid enough to watch... because I'm an idiot.

Let me start off by saying right out: U2 blows. Present tense. They were a great band that made some amazing rock music. In the early 90s they made a transition to a more experimental style gradually utilizing a sound less and less characteristic of their original musical focus. This culminated in Pop (Zooropa was pretty fucking harsh too though) which is my favorite U2 album. (I know I'll probably take shit for that so here's a preemptive fuck you!)

Then U2 decided it needed to get back to it's roots. From what I can tell, this consisted of the four very talented band members taking a very talented shit on two CDs and marketing them as great new albums... and as always, the masses are retarded so they bought it (Brilliant!). U2 has joined the likes of bands/performers like The Rolling Stones, Paul McCartney, Aerosmith, Steely Dan and everyone else that used to be great but is now too old to make interesting music and doesn't have anything left to say but won't go away because people still buy their shit. (Note: This group does not include Springsteen because I still like what he's putting out and he definitely has things to say. It does, however, include Eminem.)

I guess I shouldn't be pissed though. Grammys are historically given to shitty albums (except for Speakerboxxx/The Love Below) so it's fitting.

No shit asshats?

Note: You don't really need to read this article. Hell, I only got a third of the way through... bathrooms, closets, I get it.
