Quote of the Day

The Minor Fall, The Major Lift on some erroneous chronology in the New York Times:

Coldplay’s powers of suck are so all-encompassing that they extend out backwards through time, influencing bands that actually predate them.

þ: Nick Troester, who also finds other aspects of the article to be amusing.

Never heard Coldplay. I guess cultural illiteracy has its advantages. :-)

I read that article yesterday and was surprised at the heresy from the NYT. Coldplay is overblown, though I like that song Clocks.
