The same thing happens in music: Beck comes out with a new album, it turns out to be something of a departure from his recent all-night-dance-party stuff, and then every critic in the whole God damned country writes the exact same review of it. “Blah blah somber introspective blah blah,” writes one, while another adds, “Post-breakup blah blah ‘70s singer-songwriter blah blah,” and so forth. Who could possibly care? |
