as long as that keeps him occupied from writing 18 albums a year, then i support his efforts.

If we could save the world from dumb, the doom part would take care of itself.

i dunno, i'd be willing to wager that most people running the world today aren't that dumb. but i'll be damned if they aren't myopic, unfeeling bastards.

I guess I'd have to know who that was to understand why it's ironic.

Find the chainsaw or, if you're lucky, the BFG.

Oh, "from," not "in." Got it.

Does it involve ripping and tearing their guts?

Hot, that means they've got hot guts.

The rest of the hilariously ridiculous DOOM comic here.

The world needs a lot more Robbie Fulks and a lot less Ryan Adams.

He'll still write them, but probably won't release them.
/his unreleased stuff is full of gems

If only he wouldn't ever release anything, then he'd be like the best rock star ever.

Ryan Adams sucks. Just go buy the records by the much better artists he's ripping off.

Typo in his piece twice: "in the momentin the moment"

really ruined the flow for me

OK, "reading" that article is a bigger waste of time than this post.

First of all Cardinal is a band made of Eric Matthews and Richard Davies that kicks 10x more ass than this chump.

Second, what the heck is up with some YouTube stuff playing great and other stuff buffering at RealNetworks speed?

carmody: Ryan Adams sucks. Just go buy the records by the much better artists he's ripping off.

Like? Help us morans out.

I like his music a lot, so these "uncredited sources" better be something.

Wow, a Cardinal fan on Fark? Only one album, but it's great.

/I believe in Christmas trees, too.

 
Eshman 2008-10-29 04:32:06 PM  
Adams' article read exactly like I expected it. It's a bunch of pretentious garbage written in one huge run-on sentence. Why would the MIT Press allow this sort of tripe?

Who is ripping off? I guess you havent you heard of talent - he has it. I don't care what you say.

I agree. No response from Mr. Rip Off. How apropos, Adams wrote a song "Rip Off". HA!

Ryan Adams has released 10 albums in the last 9 years. That's no different from Neil Young, Elvis Costello, Willie Nelson or other prolific singer-songwriters.

/Seven of those albums are on my desert island list
//Cold Roses is my fav.

I see what you did there.

Adams is a douchebag but Heartbreaker is one of the best albums ever.
