I can't decide which one is funnier. But then again, I haven't heard anything from the new YYY apart from Gold Lion. Unfortunately, "You're Beautiful" and the other one are on constant repeat in all of France.

Blunt isn't horrifying on the rest of the album, just cloying. I'd give it a 5.

it's ridiculous because hands out 10- like it's the congressional medal of honour or something. the last 10- records were in 2003:

Radiohead - HTTT and Four Tet - Rounds I have heard and agree with, but then there's these two :

never heard cafe tacvba, but i don't think that mars volta is anywhere near 10-.
# Cafe Tacvba * Quatro Caminos (MCA)
# The Mars Volta * De-Loused In The Comatorium (GSL/Universal)

Well, FnB's 8+ is really a normal critic's 3 or 4.

He gave the Cafe Tacuba a 10-? Ugh. That is one of the worst international albums I've ever heard.
