people from Germany should never speak English. They just dumb themselves down and look silly.

Nico's singing on the first VU record features one of the funniest German-to-English accents i've ever heard. my favorite is on "Femme Fatale" where she's completely unable to pronounce "clown," rendering it as "klovn." my second wife and i used to mock that mercilessly.

Slint was never that good.

In 1991, no one outside of a small creative community in Louisville knew who Will Oldham was.

In space no one can hear Will Oldham scream.
