Two especially choice quotes from the new (August) issue of Uncut: “‘Laika,’ with Pixies-ish call and response, has Tom Verlaine guitar harmonics over ? & the Mysterians staccato rhythms.” “…‘Chelsea Burns’ is a frazzled, Mazzy Cohen hymn to beautiful losers.” Wonder if even Leonard Cohen gets the “Mazzy” part.

Green. Pejorative slang term for an under-ripe wine, usually a red, that has flavors of green bell peppers and/or other salad produce.

It had a decent concentration, but I couldn’t get past how green it was on the nose. Read more from the Wine Snob's Dictionary »
