The Colostomy Bag: Peter Bjorn and John

Oh my god.  I've heard a few songs from the new Peter Bjorn and John album and it gave me irritable bowel.  
Sounds like really bad 80's.  Absolutely intolerable.  Dear god guys, what happened?

The Nurse's Station: Cymbals Eat Guitars - Why There Are Mountains

Modest Mouse and Pavement must have fornicated and produced this beautiful offspring.  Cymbals Eat Guitars are my new favorite band.  I was at first deterred by the album cover - it's horrible, but I'll let it go.  So far 2009, you have been awesome for music!  Keep it up.

The Colostomy Bag- Wayne Coyne

Oh Wayne Coyne, you have broken my heart.  A few years ago, I didn't mind that he openly bashed Beck (because he's a filthy Scientologist).  I was okay with that.  I appreciated that Wayne was so open and didn't give a fuck about anything.  That's what made him so cool.
But now, he's taken it too far.  After reading his interview with Rolling Stone and the comments he made about Arcade Fire, it just seemed so unjustified.  He called them pompous and just went off about my precious Canadian band.
I wondered for a moment if maybe he was right and that Arcade Fire was a bunch of pompous douchebags, but after Win Butler responded to Wayne's bashing, the result was pretty clear -Wayne is the asshole in this situation.  Butler definitely came off looking better.  He even threw some subtle, mocking humor in there.  It was quite clever (Yes, we Canadians are so witty!)
For both stories, check out the links and decide for yourself.  But for me, Wayne, you have let me down.
