A lot of people said 2011 was a terrible year. Myself included. And sure, in some ways it was, and in some ways it wasn't, and 2011 is as subject to perspective and the theory of relativity as any other year. But it seemed tough for a lot of people. Europe began sinking into critical debt, natural disasters seemed particularly rife with 2011 kicking off in Australia with devastating floods in Queensland... And of course as the people of multiple countries stood up to their dickhead dictators and said 'enough', they were (among other things) used as human shields. It [...]]]> text/html 2012-01-03T05:21:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/3962082/drakes-top-ten-movie-soundtracks-of-2011/
Top Ten Movie Soundtracks of 2011 Words : Drake Lelane Ok... I have to come clean. I did not see as many of these films as in the past five years of making this annual list. Since having kids, it's hard to get to the theater to see a film that isn't animated, but I make up for it by being choosy with I do see and then catching up by feasting upon award season screener DVDs in December. So even though I got to see what [...]]]> text/html 2011-12-29T17:08:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/3955832/drakes-top-50-albums-of-2011/
Drake's Top Albums of 2011 Words : Drake Lelane If 2010 was 1993 all over again, 2011 seemed to ignore this trend (and all the corresponding 20 year anniversary reissues), instead reaching back a decade prior. Releases from Destroyer and M83 mined that decade to make great albums, while several bands of that era (Gang of Four, Wire, The Feelies) returned with new releases. Another minor trend we noticed here was artists absolutely obliterating the tired "sophomore slump" myth, with Girls, tUnE-yArds, Bon Iver, Real Estate, Fleet [...]]]> text/html 2011-12-16T16:06:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/3934967/bc-music-picks-the-best-albums-of-2011/

Hey guys, it's December! You know what that means - Year-End Lists! All across the Internet, bloggers as well as professional journalists are taking stock of their lives (and the lives of the people on whom they report) and using that stock to form the base of a writerly soup! Filled with commentaries and observations! [...]]]> text/html 2011-06-14T13:49:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/3517327/betty-whites-tips-for-living-a-happy-life-video/


Everyone's favorite veteran funny lady Betty White was on the Late Show with David Letterman last night to deliver a top ten list with advice on how to live a long and happy life. It goes without saying that it was hilarious... The woman I wish was my grandmother picked on everyone from Lebron James , to Anthony Weiner ("Number Six: Avoid tweeting any photos of your private parts.").

Christina Aguilera After being in the music business for over a decade, Christina Aguilera 's learned a lot and can give some pretty good advice. She shares tips with her team on her new NBC hit series, The Voice , and now she's spreading a little more tips on The Late Show with David Letterman. During the show's famous "top 103 segment, Xtina dished out valuable advice to aspiring singers.

Pope's Top 10 The basis for making my Top 10 list is on how much I wanted to listen to the music, how much I thought about the music when listening to other music or when doing mundane day to day tasks. This list has nothing to do with which album has the greatest impact on its individual or specific genre, but purely on how much love I gave the particular recording. Let it be noted that there is very little separating this years top three choices. All three albums have spent extended periods of [...]]]> text/html 2010-12-04T02:47:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/3018944/the-top-ten-top-ten-lists-of-2010/
"Do they know it's December? Do they care?" I awoke this morning asking myself this question. There are four Fridays in December, and each one has to be dedicated to a Year-End list. Why? Because that's what every publication on the face of the planet does starting the moment Thanksgiving dinner ends. Across all forms of media, the next few weeks will be filled with cloying fits of nostalgia, hindsight-enriched wistfulness, and even some good-old-fashioned navel-gazing. On each Friday in December, Swan Fungus will present a new Year-End list. If you are an old-timer, you know how this works. If [...]]]> text/html 2010-12-01T02:18:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/3010594/mfr-readers-poll-the-best-albums-of-2010/

I've been back in my stuffy, overheated apartment for a few days now, and I've been catching up on a lot of record listening. I find it's best to listen to records when I'm alone because no one can hear the soft, pleasurable moans I emit when the sound of my Rega stylus retracing the grooves of some sweet, sweet vinyl records floods my ears. I think somewhere in my father's house there exists a drawing (done by the Harvey Pekar of his generation, Z) of me masturbating furiously to to (presumably) my record collection. Maybe Z could simply no [...]]]> text/html 2010-10-28T04:12:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/2926661/top-ten-up-and-coming-rap-tracks/

The 1st Generation iPatch had it's detractors, as well... Hey, it's Friday! Most of you are going to go out and get wasted tonight. I'm not! I'm going out for a nice dinner and then probably going to sleep, because I am exhausted. Every news organization is talking about the new Apple product that was released today. The...what's-it-called. iWhat's-it-called. Yeah, that sounds about right. The mini computer that's supposed to save the media industry because you can take it places and read things.

Wednesday was the official 5th birthday of Swan Fungus. The celebration and State Of The Blog address will occur on Sunday, March 14th. We'll all congregate right here, in cyberspace, for cupcakes and soda. Maybe at like 8pm PST? Sorry East Coasters, most of my audience is here on this coast now. Don't worry, we'll roofie your drinks to help you feel more intoxicated faster, that way you can go to bed early and still feel like you partied your ass off with the rest of us. So, yeah.

Yes, I'm one of the crazy people tackling Best of the Decade lists. In addition to my annual year end lists , I'll be sharing my favorite Albums, Books, Movies, and TV Series of the past decade. First up, my favorite ten television shows that aired between 2000-2009... Muruch's Best of the Decade: Television 10. Firefly As you'll see below, Joss Whedon dominates this list.
