This song is more infectious than Jeff Goldblum’s laptop in Independence Day

Suck My Minaj

If Nicki Minaj wasn’t appearing to simultaneously appeal to primary school children and your lap dance-loving dad, she could be a role model for rebellion with her penchant for swearing like her breath depended on it. She sounds hardcore. She looks I-Don’t-Even-Wanna-Know-What-Core.

Willis Earl Beal – Acousmatic Sorcery (Hot Charity/XL)

There’s a righteousness at the heart of these songs, a riveting freedom that makes Contemporary Indie — cute, smug, obvious, self-obsessed, eager to please — seem hilariously and stupidly irrelevant.

Song of the day – 451: Julia Holter

Sure. Julia Holter does sound softened, magical, intimate. Beauty is saddened.

a mini-rant about a Stereogum ‘news’ story about Grimes

Some of the most impressively bad writing about Grimes the internet has yet produced.

Grimes – Visions (Arbutus Records/4AD)

Visions seduces me a little more, yet at the same time, I know I will never truly love it
