...instrumentation. It would be hard to satisfy traditional fans (if any exist) of either of these bands, as they hail from opposite sides of the indie-musical spectrum. Oldham, who often relies on bare, folk-like musical backing for his back-country confessions, is here nudged towards the technologically deviant complexity of Tortoise, who are in turn obliged to accommodate Oldham’s tendency for a quieter style of shoe-gazing. Still, both groups are accomplished and thoughtful, and when both make concessions, they lend some old tunes some new bipolar beauty. —Staff writer Henry...
...deviant fantasies lead us to a troubling conclusion about Republican activists at Harvard, if W is representative, as I think he is. This bunch has developed an entire narrative of victimhood, of severe oppression at the hands of some tyrannical liberal hegemony. They, and they alone, are those who courageously stand defiant in the face of the progressive bulldozer. And so they must fight mercilessly for what they see is right, even if it they end up doing it with the intellectual rigor of a napkin...

Deep down, though, I always knew that R was innocent...
...argue that the principal difference between Jackson's case and Kelly's is the difference between how our society views the sexuality of 13-year-old boys and of 14-year-old girls, it's really about audacity. The shroud of Neverland has always made Jackson's behavior seem deviant, even if it wasn't illegal. But Kelly goes about his business as if the world were an extension of his satin sheets. He tours, makes videos, writes songs in which he announces, "I want sex in the kitchen, over by the stove/ Put you on the counter...
