Having been shocked by how much I enjoyed Wicked Pt 1 I held out hope I would enjoy the second movie but hoo boy what a shitshow. Simultaneously dragged out to a ludicrous degree and belligerently rushed on all the emotional beats, done like a MCU movie more than a musical. Ruinously straight.

Thanks so much to GQ for publishing my liner notes for the new Replacements 'Let It Be' boxset, out on Friday. Extra special thanks to Jessica Hopper, Patterson Hood and Brian Paulson for their extraordinary insights. What an absolute joy this project has been to work on.

When The Replacements' Courage Was at its Peak
On their 1984 album āLet It Be,ā the Minneapolis indie-rock wastrels spewed a message of working-class passion and outsider solidarity into the world's answering machine.

The Master is maybe the best American two-hander of the 21st century but for me the defining scene of it is this moment where one of Doddās most faithful believes in him so much she spots a discrepancy and in earnestly seeking to reconcile it this happens

It was always hilarious that Grok tended somehow to be the least inherently racist AI despite Musk constantly screaming āadd more slurs!ā to his captive H1-B workers so now theyāve finally found a way to give the boss what he wants, a Mombot 3000 to say heās the best and handsomest boy.

There are a lot of things I admire about Chuck Schuldiner and near the top of the list is how immaculately produced every Death album is. Usually in underground metal drums are one big noise and the bass guitar is there for emotional support but every single element is so perfectly miked and mixed.

If I Had Legs Iād Kick You: The Babadook without the release valve of a monster, as stressful as a movie can be. Byrne is deservedly going to get a lot of hype for this for how much she cracks but imo the real genius of her performance is all the little reflexive expressions trying to look fine

I love the Dropkick Murphys because "Irish-American" + "gen X" + "punk rocker who's been at it for 30 years" should be the formula for the most racist guy alive but instead Ken Casey is constantly giving interviews where he's like "fascists are demons from hell and that's where they belong"
