Which artists do you think have the best quality control? What thoughts came to mind when Thom Yorke trolled you with a chopped and screwed unplugged "Creep"? Here are some of the topics that we go over in this episode: Will Max Martin ruin Coldplay's current production? Are clever "packaging", visuals, and marketing an adequate replacement for mediocre music? Is Sarah Brand in the same position now as Rebecca Black was back in 2011? Is Kendrick Lamar the "Radiohead" of rap/hip-hop? Does something being "nostalgic" mean that it's "good"? Was punk pop since its inception? Has rock been and is it currently devolving?
