Re: That Stingy Michelin Man! (Three Stars Reviews)

Berkeley Social Scene I think this suffers a bit from not being able to practice the vocals longer before having to record by the deadline. I have the same problem. As a Songfight! entry, I can look past this. I like the structure and the dueling guitar rhythms, one in each ear. I'm kind of a sucke...

Re: Jan 16, 2015

Niveous, checking in. My wife recently asked me this interesting question: "Has Songfight ever done a music video fight?" I'm pretty sure the answer is no. So, my question is why the heck not? Because it's hard enough to write and record a song by a deadline, let alone video accompaniment...

Re: That Stingy Michelin Man! (Three Stars Reviews)

Hoblit - My crappy laptop was having problems streaming all 15 minutes of this, taking all my reviews with it - and crashed. Punk rock! Downloaded it (how charmingy retro) and it thinks it's 12 minutes. However long it is, the first two minutes are perfect (though the chorus could have a bit more m...

@ Hobz. ... @Mark. It's better than the regressive alternative. :D Thank you, and I completely skipped the blue-ray phase and went directly to streaming.

Re: I agree with this 100%

Like I said, dems get their fair share. My point was, when campaign money starts pouring into progressives pushing for green energy, it will level the field opposing those that refuse to believe that mankind has any impact on climate change. Dirty energy lobbyists (right wing) vs Clean energy lobby...

Re: I agree with this 100%

Not forgetting, I just have no confidence in that option. Despite your example. ....Because there is very little evidence that there will be any stop to it and no guarantee that it will ever be undone. Our government rarely gives up any power it obtains. I guess I'm a bit more optimistic than you. ...

Re: I agree with this 100%

You can vote those guys out but the next guys aren't going to be any better or are more of the same. You are forgetting the other option. They can be asked to resign, step down or just get removed if the evidence is too much to deny. ...The question is, how much damage will occur before these laws ...

Re: I agree with this 100%

Systems of government are cyclic and they build on one another ... Getting rid of government as a whole isn't flushing the toilet, it's knocking it down with a sledgehammer and then burning the house down and then spreading your shit everywhere to see what grows in it. Sure, have it your way. I thi...

Re: I agree with this 100%

My point wasn't really meant to be "it could be worse" so much as there's a middle ground between abolishing government entirely and accepting what we have. If anarchy were a system that worked in reality, then we'd never have developed governments in the first place; however, rule of law...

Re: I agree with this 100%

I don't think that the US government is the best configuration for that but there are certainly far worse ones out there. Absolutely. That doesn't mean you have to settle for what you have though, just because it's better than, say, Syria. I'm glad this was covered. I hate that in any argument. &qu...

Bearing in mind that these are MP3s I'm hearing, and that I'm listening on headphones so as not to disturb my roommates, here's a start on the reviews. Hoblit — Ah, there's the drums. Production-wise I kind of wish the chorus felt louder than the verse, because it's very striking. Wish the verse me...
