Haven't listened to his last album, through, probably because everything I've read about it seems to suggest that I wouldn't be able to sit through even one track without bursting a blood vessel. You guys need to sit down with Jang Sa-ik, too. Great stuff, although I guess it ain't for everyone. I look forward to the nationalistic spin the Chosun will have for this one. Kind of funny you should have mentioned that, because the Chosun took a rather bizarre approach to the piece. The original headline was something like "LA Koreatown a 'Lawless Zone,'" and the writer seemed quite annoyed at what he considered a slam on Koreatown by the LAT. Frankly, we weren't sure whether the Chosun writer actually understood the LAT piece properly, because the tone of his piece and that of the LAT piece were completely different, and some of his quote translations seemed a bit funny. PS: Dulkukhwa rules. That “??? guy” has got soul, even if his politics are completey off the wall.

Personally, I still like No Brain and ??¼?²­ ????œ¡?Œ€.

What I don't understand is why Robert likes the generic folkisms and wheeziness of that ??? guy. Are Britney Spears and her imitators all that different?
