“Rasputin” by Boney M. is one of the best songs of all time because it takes one of history’s most bizarre and fascinating figures and they are able to capture the chaos’s of his life so well. Rasputin’s life is wild on its own, and the song somehow narrates that chaos so clearly while keeping it fun and ridiculously catchy. The fact that it manages to tell a full historical story while still being insanely danceable is what really sets it apart. And at the end of the day, it’s just an absolute banger. Truly one of a kind

Living Colour is one of the most underrated bands to have hit in the late 80s/early 90s that are still around today. Even with the long gaps they take between albums, they never fail to drop quality music whenever they do

Jordan Fairbairn

Don’t get me wrong Ethel Cain deserves all of her success and love around her music. However, I do wish Nicole Dollanganger had received more love since she’s is such a clear and direct inspiration. I use to think it was the lyrical themes that would put off the GA but with successes of the songs like Ptolemaea or Hard Times my perspective has wavered a little. Love your videos, Anthony.

Out of all the early eighties underground rock bands that led to the 90s alternative rock movement I think The Replacements have the best discography, songs like androgenous and left of the dial are just as or more relevant today than when they came out unfortunately. But my favourite is Husker Du, even though the production is pretty bad I have a soft spot for it. The sounds and lyrics really foreshadows the garage rock revival sounds of the 2000s. Definitely needs a remaster like The Meat Puppets early discography or The Replacements Tim Let it Bleed edition to let the music really shine though. It’s a shame that the turning point from hardcore punk to the underground more alternative rock has been more or less forgotten with time, the only one from that early era I can think of that has had lasting relevance is REM but they were influenced by post punk not really hardcore. New listeners got to go back!

Whole Lotta Red is the most important album of the 2020s in terms of influence and it isn't even really close. Rage at the start of 2026 has graduated from just a subgenre of trap to a fully formed and unique lane of hip hop that can take on many different influences to create a wholly new sound, and the ideas Carti pioneered on that record, while not perfect or fully formed, have permanantly altered the DNA of hip hop. Whole Lotta Red is the exact moment that hip hop was reset in the 2020s. Not many people out there can claim they created a new and distinct genre, but Carti certainly can.

Melon’s comment about WLR being “an 808s and Heartbreak type moment” has aged quite well

First, A Complete Unknown, and now, Marty Supreme, this one being your biggest movie L to date. Sincerely, I admire your thoroughness, and there is a fascinating contingent of naysayers with compelling arguments, but what is that take dog? What’s this notion of a main character having to be both smart and likable? So many classic characters are questionable, unlikable, and yet they serve a thematic purpose, as is the case for Marty. Yes, he’s arrogant, egotistical, selfish, and yes, stupid at times, but he’s also simultaneously smart at times, magnetic and intensely watchable. All of these things make him a great movie character. Take Jake LaMotta from Raging Bull (and real life). Horrible, yes, but the film provides a relentlessly engaging study of that character, and similar can be said for Marty, who is moreorless an amalgamation of several different real people. Additionally, I don’t buy into this idea that the movie gives him a pass, or absolves him of his wrongdoing. The final moments work because you can read it in many different ways, and to my eyes, as its a life-changing moment, snaps him into reality, because at this point he has effectively achieved his dream, regardless of the collateral damage left in his wake. Finally, I don’t believe you gave the Lopatin score nor the soundtrack its flowers. The 80s songs add a real kick and rhythm to the edit that a 50s song simply couldn’t. Josh Safdie justifies that choice in many an interview that are worth the listen. The score on the other hand, as someone who doesn’t typically listen to scores outside of the film, (I and many others) have been playing the cuss out that b- PS drop the Eddington review. The world must know

Fuck Marry Kill these debut albums: Weezer- Blue Album Kanye West- College Dropout The Strokes- Is This It

Herbieguy

Between the two options, which do you tend to prefer: A short discography that's consistently good, or a long, versatile discography with lots of quality highs and lows throughout?

Josh Miles

90s vs 00s female artists: which is the stronger group? Must have debuted in their respective decade 90s: - Mariah Carey - Shania Twain - Alanis Morrisette - Liz Phair - PJ Harvey - Faith Hill - Sheryl Crow - Björk (bit of a cheat but technically debuted in the 90s) - Fiona Apple - Gwen Stefani (No Doubt) - Lauryn Hill - Mary J. Blige - Courtney Love - Aaliyah 00s: - Amy Winehouse - Adele - Florence + the Machine - St. Vincent - Ciara - Rihanna - Lady Gaga - Norah Jones - Taylor Swift - Alicia Keys - Joanna Newsom - Janelle Monae - Hayley Williams - Avril Lavigne ----- Left out BeyoncĂ© because of the clash between Destiny’s Child in 90s and her official solo debut in the 00s. Couldn’t decide about Christina Aguilera/Britney Spears. Technically debuted in 1999 but was obviously most prominent in the 00s. Sade, Celine Deon, Janet Jackson, Whitney Houston & Madonna precede 90s. Sure I left a some out but feel free to add whoever I forgot.

I really liked the video about Venezuela and I believe you should talk about international (and non-English) music more often. If you don't feel comfortable doing it yourself because of a language barrier or sth, I endorse inviting guests like you did in said video.

LordArlond

What are some albums that are better listened to while in college?

Isaac Furler

What are your top 3 reggaeton must listens, that deeply influenced the genre?

Trevor Young

The newer generations need their own "fictional" bands like Gorillaz. It was a winning formula in the 00s -- fun music and animated characters -- it's guaranteed to appeal to teens/preteens of any generation. But there hasn't really been anything like that since. I feel bad for the zoomers and Gen A kids for missing out on the excitement we felt as young millennials circa 2006.

Jaden Scott

Hip-hop isn’t “dying” the way people claim it is. The modern music landscape has just been flattened out. Streaming/the internet/social media have opened the gates, giving space for multiple genres and sub-genres to hold space in popular music. People now have great songs and artists from various spaces and eras being put in front of them all the time through tik toks, playlists, movies etc. And they now have the ability to find that artist within seconds and become a fan or at the very least give streams they wouldn’t otherwise get. This has been growing/evolving since the 2010s but truly has exploded in the 2020s . It’s unlikely a single genre will be the zeitgeist that hip-hop was in the 2010s again. Now the charts can be comprised of anyone from Kendrick to Sabrina to Tyler to Zach Bryan to Tame Impala. Not to mention all the artists of previous eras that make new rounds with young audiences. (Fleetwood, Radiohead, prince, etc.)

Jac

Maybe AI slop will result in the most generic and boring artists being replaced by GenAI shartists, and this will incentivize others to move into more truly creative sounds and formats to differentiate themselves. Trying to be optimistic.

Pneuma Apologetics

Tim pool and Billy corgan are secretly related Both are from Chicago Same accent Same facial hair Both are bald Both are conspiracy theorist Both are anti industry and despise modern pop culture Both are strongly opinionated Tim pool favorite band is the smashing pumpkins

Josh Brown

Broadway performers are some of the most talented singers alive but don’t get the same respect as other recording artists because of Broadway’s reputation for being melodramatic and cheesy. Plenty of popular artists embrace theatrics as apart of their image so what’s the difference when it’s the core medium? If Cynthia Eviro was making “standard” pop albums she’d be considered the next Adele or Alicia Keys.

Angus Harley

Danny Brown is the Detroit rap GOAT (sorry em)

Herbieguy

I hope he shouts of Naked City.

Alec Moore

Has "Let God Sort Em Out" eCLIPSEd "Hell Hath No Fury" for you?

Skullring27

Harry styles should pull a Scott walker and make a completely experimental album that deconstructs music itself.

Jackson Clift

Do you think that Queen would be considered one of the great rock bands of all time like they are now if they had sticked to their fantasy/biblical themes from the first two albums liked Freddie wanted to?

patrick

Johnny Cash’s cover of Hurt by NIN is good but people need to acknowledge that the impact of the song lies more in Trent Reznor’s amazing and powerful songwriting. Whenever people say stuff like “It’s Johnny Cash’s song now” it feels a bit disrespectful, especially because of how emotionally devastating and personal the songwriting is and how it all tied into The Downward Spiral — an album that deals with the same/similarly serious topics. Discourse around a cover isn’t usually this deep but I truly believe this is the rare case where it is.

John Barnes

i think that if xxxtentacion were to live a longer life, he would've been what kodak was on MMATBS; them both being from florida and both blowing up during the soundcloud age. kendrick also cosigned x's debut album on his twitter so there is some sort of connection there. x's much wider versatility would've been really interesting to see on Mr Morale instead.

Zach Stolpa

The only reason people shit on yoko ono is for her contributions to the live performance John had with chuck berry

Zach Stolpa

Rage against the machine “sold out” about as much as nirvana “sold out”, people who make that argument most times with certain acts it’s really being knit picky usually on a personal gripe they have with something about the band they are trying to call out

Logic’s 1-800 would be looked back on much more fondly if he left out the part in the hook where he says “who can relate? WOO!” You can say the song is melodramatic or whatever but I think it came from a sincere place and genuinely helped a lot of people (my younger self included), but that dumbass ad lib makes it impossible for most people to take the song seriously and that’s unfortunate.

Rico the Giants Biggest Fan

I would say Pet Sounds, It is THE seminal coming of age album about young love, growing up, and changing as a person in your early 20s. I would also give a shout to Teens of Denial by Car Seat Headrest

Florencio

The Guitar Hero/Rock Band era jumpstarted a generation of young kids into a lifelong passion of playing and listening to music. It put so much rock history into perspective in a fun way and inspired countless people to pick up an instrument for the first time. Probably had a tangible impact on the trajectory of modern rock music.

AllOverAgain

don't forget Rocksmith it unfortunately came out right when guitar rhythm games were going out of style, but it's one of the few in the genre where you can legit learn how to play guitar lol

Hello There

Nujabes is a top 3 Hip-Hop producer of the 2000’s. Also, would you reconsider re-reviewing his 2011 album ‘Spiritual State’, as you gave it a strong 6 to a light 7, when I think it’s at least an 8. The title track is one of his best songs ever.

Skullring27

If you had to pick a modern artist/band to work with Merzbow, who would it be?

EZGames69

It feels like out of all the members of System of a Down, only Serj seems to genuinely believe in the words of the songs they made. While everyone else in the band has either become an enlightened centrist or a hardcore MAGA supporter.
