"Riptide"- Vance Joy

Originally, this song angered me. A little irrational? Yeah, probably. I'm starting to resent the now-diminishing neo-folk wave. However, now I'm more okay with it. It's insanely catchy, and while the lyrics are somewhat vapid, they have a few otherwise glimmering - eh, quirky - moments.  The video gives the song another dimension, in my opinion. Anyway, judge for yourself. This blog isn't called "the Useless Critic" for nothing. 

Late Summer/Early Autumn Mix

Hey everyone! I have returned to present you one very belated music mix. Sounds about right. It was intended more for late summer, but let's not kid ourselves. I hope y'all enjoy it. I've got Beach House, Andrew Bird, some new Spoon, and Charlotte Gainsbourg. The Neighbourhood is on there as well because that song gets stuck in my head all the time. Zach has some content planned for October btws. Besides pumpkin spice lattes and football at bad neighborhood sports bars, there's another thing to love about fall!
