photos by Trey Riedmeyer In long distance running, there's a term for a moment near the end of a race where a runner's mental resolve breaks down: "The wall". Sunday at Bonnaroo is that wall. If they were able to break through on Sunday morning, there were still plenty of things to see and do all day, but if they weren't, fest goers might have been lucky to catch the end of The National or passing out to Tom Petty before begrudgingly hitting the road. Sunday was the weekend's hottest day, but for those that were [...]

CHVRCHES at Sasquatch / photo by Matthew Thompson So I had literally just walked from CHVRCHES set at Sasquatch and opened my computer to write about said set when I found out that they had just released "Guns" - an amazingly good track that basically runs pop-synth circles around most other pop that's been released this summer. "Did you feel so clever?" Mayberry sings, and while it's hard to imagine the owner of that voice being mocking or scary ("You had better run from me, cause I am gonna come for you") [...]

Last year, the primordial pop culture soup belched up an abomination in the form of Lulu , a collaborative effort between Lou Reed and Metallica . It made no sense.

These are songs, albums, and side projects that are not just good, but also make the world feel like a rational place to live. [...]
