Best Music Writing of 2007

I’ve been talking about picking this up for weeks, but I finally grabbed it and as usual, it’s full of wonderful essays, reviews and interviews worth reading. My favorite piece, a piece that I’ve mentioned, bookmarked and forced upon friends for months is Nick Southalls’ essay called “Imperfect Sound Forever”, which originally appeared at Stylus (RIP).

I made a mistake earlier, thanks to the usage of Pavement plays-on-words. The Wowee Zowee piece was by Mallory O’Donnell, and it was about Wowee Zowee. Nick’s piece is about listening. Read it.

did the Southall piece get taken off the website? I can’t seem to find it anywhere.

It’s still there; specifically here - http://www.stylusmagazine.com/articles/weekly_article/imperfect-sound-forever.htm
