I like music to be exciting, dangerous, and unique. That's where my love of avant jazz and punk rock come from. This means music which is harmless like the National is automatically rubbish in my eyes. I don't dislike them because they're especially bad, but because they're just so safe

You have to hear Martina Robert's "Coin Coin Chapter 1". The best jazz album since "Bitches Brew"!
