http://www.family.org/pplace/pi/music/apparently, they found a lot of similarities with Jack Johnson's "On and On". Seriously, though, go to the archive and you'll find the actual expose. Brilliant, brilliant material. Basically, the same thoughtful analysis went into this as their "Kid A" blurb. Funniest line? An implication that two f-words are more problematic than a literalist interpretation of "We Suck Young Blood". ROTFL!

Terrible, terrible music critics. Their work is wholly without merit. And, as usual, I have to wonder if they even bothered to listen to the album more than once.

Ah, uber-conservative, reactionary fundamentalists... the most unintentionally funny people in the world! |

I only know Johnson's radio single. Plugged-in apparently thought he's morally acceptable. How many days until they fix the link, in your estimation?
Old Plugged-in: one month late and utterly clueless (unless you want to subscribe and actually pay $ for their "work")
New Plugged-in: Nearly three months late and utterly clueless
Both Plugged-ins: excellent comic relief for tough days.

I used to trust Plugged In, actually, until I heard some song that they had said was bad, and I realized that they had completely misunderstood the song! I wish I could remember whatsong it was now.....it was pretty funny.

Fun facts about Chuck Norris:
Newton's Third Law is wrong: Although it states that for each action, there is an equal and opposite reaction, there is no force equal in reaction to a Chuck Norris roundhouse kick.
Chuck Norris can divide by zero.
Chuck Norris CAN believe it's not butter.

It seems he just listens through the CD once, jots down whatever lines stood out as being "bad" or "good", and writes his review off that...

Well, I posted a similar topic over on cmcentral, but with a bit more generalized criticisms of Plugged-in. I'm getting some interesting conversation out of it, although some people there just drive me nuts...the one guy (Ibtran I think he's called) sounds like he doesn't even listen to secular music at all, but he agrees wholeheartedly with their analyses. How is that possible?
