St. Joe’s Students Have Horrible Taste In MusicI’m on the mailing list for The Hawk, the official student newspaper of the St. Joe’s. I can’t really remember anything the paper has done since calling Cardinal Rigali gay in last year’s joke issue, but it turns out the paper has a horrible taste in music. Just look!  Yes, that’s Coldplay, leading The Hawk’s albums of the year section. It’s apparently just a random assortment of staff picks, which is why one of the albums of the year is also the Jonas Brothers. I’ll admit I’m not much of a music fan; I believe I broke my girlfriend’s ears with my constant playing of the 10-disc NFL Films soundtrack. Brian is definitely the one who should be tackling this. But whatever, I particularly liked the first sentence to the review of the Seasick Steve album, which is a person and/or band I believe was made up, and I wanted to note it:

Hope you guys are able to break your record of 18 for most commented posts with this one
Sadly, it’s better than most alt-Weekly “Best of Music” lists.
Seriously, do we need another paper telling us we’re missing the latest lo-fi alt-rock crap album? Another review on some god-awful piece of crap by some band only the editor and his 5 friends know, not because they’re under-rated, but because they SUCK?
I hate Coldplay, they ripped off Joe Satriani, namely that song. But the day an alt-weekly pounds on another paper for a music “best of”? HA!
Love the headline.
