Thomas, that is a wonderful description of hipsters. That’s one of the awesome things about living in the burbs and being a (realatively) old coroporate sleezebag; I just never run into hipsters anymore.

Glad you love the comic. Compliments from our readers really mean a lot to Dana and I, so thank you for being so kind.

that doesn’t make it any less of a kick in the balls when you see some kids with floppy hats, scarves. and skater pants with irony pinned to their sleeve standing outside of starbucks talking about em

p.s. i love your comic, i am a serious webcomic junkie

Thomas … I am baffled and amazed that such a job exists. My jealousy flag is flying pretty high right now. I mean, I write marketing copy for a living, about like, pens and lapel pins. You actually have a cool job, which is ridiculous.

Also, correct me if I’m wrong, but isn’t pointing out the next big thing a mark of an excellent critic/reviewer? I mean, among the music press, isn’t that one of the best ways to get bragging rights?

it is i love it, its even better than when i was working in the projection booth at the movie theatre (being fired for throwing popcorn when twilight actors came for the premiere: totally worth it), i basically get paid to go see shows and find new music online. but it also makes me feel like an idiot for the occasional times when somebody i suggest becomes a hipster god

Thomas … please explain your job to me. It sound like the most amazing job ever. Also, Fat Mike is a personal hero of mine as well. I mean, I’m tempted to moralize about his alleged insane drug use, but it seems to be working for the man, so who am I to judge?

Nicholas,
Thanks so much for all the songs, I appreciate it. Sorry to leave you hanging for a week, but I’ve been busy updating the site. I think my favorite song you listed was “Neon Knights,” and the one that made me laugh the most was the video for “Holy Diver.”

“Number of the Beast” is an old favorite of mine.

Sorry I forgot to mention Tool. I’m pretty lukewarm on them. When I first heard their stuff in college, I was blown away, but now, I dunno, their songs just don’t punch me the way they used to. “Lateralus” is a good one though …

its ok lol finding small bands that no one knows of is my job (literally, i get paid to find new music for people depending on their favorite genres) those are just my personal favorites gotta be really weird to like some of the stuff (but i support your pick of me first and the gimme gimmes, NOFX got me into crazy weird music and Fat Mike is a personal hero, which is probably not good…

“Cryptic Writings is a definite favorite from my youth”

You just made this 30-year-old feel old.
