I want to make a photocopy of Garth's face and print it in the comments for the 2005 Pazz & Jop critics poll. Yeah, I listened to this whole fucker.

"...Not the old rock and roll way, they want to use computers. Who do they think they are? Maybe jazz musicians?" Yeah R. Christ! You tell em. Tell all the assholes sup! Keep kickin it old school! Pixies, man, sleepers in '06, whoo!

This is obviously not Christgau. Nick Sylvester, maybe? Far too arch and juvenile to spring from the mouth of the Dean, it sounds more like the work of someone my own age (23), or a stoned 15 year old, perhaps. Anyone who's dowloaded XGau's "Clubrat Special" will realize instantly that this is someone else "singing" - although the deadpan imitation of Christgau's Queens near-monotone is pretty funny, I will admit.

this doesn't really help to disprove that adage that critics make shitty musicians. thanks for bombing the cause back to the stone age.

ps - the remix is tight, though.
