Don’t Stay Up Too Late. » Entertainment Weekly's Bullshit List, #100-96. »
I’m not sure we can fault Entertainment Weekly for being what it is; if the list went more avant-garde or outside of the English-speaking world, it wouldn’t be EW. What puzzles me more is the lack of recognition Britain gets for its pop scenes. Portishead’s okay, I guess, but no Massive Attack or Tricky? No Stone Roses, Blur, Pulp, Streets, or grime? Maybe my Anglophilia is showing a bit, but seeing a list like this without Pills, Thrills N Bellyaches or Psychocandy is just weird.
