Rob Sheffield Quotes

The difference is that people aren’t watching Picture Quote #1

‘American Horror’ goes for a very specific kind of Seventies suburban downer ambience - ‘Flowers in the Attic’ paperbacks, Black Sabbath album covers and late-night flicks like ‘Let’s Scare Jessica to Death.’ It even has ‘Go Ask Alice’-era urban legends Picture Quote #1

One of the best moments of any Liars show is hearing the crowd squawk ‘We’re doomed! We’re doomed!’ on cue during ‘We Fenced Other Houses with the Bones of Our Own.’ Maybe not the most uplifting audience sing-along in the indie rock world, but one of the most reliably entertaining Picture Quote #1

We all get as miserable as Erika M. Andersen sometimes, but we rarely approach her musical-ideas-per-miserable-minute ratio Picture Quote #1

Thank you for the music, Sleater-Kinney. This gang of three was the best American punk rock band ever. Ever Picture Quote #1

I’ve built my whole life around loving music. I’m a writer for ‘Rolling Stone,’ so I am constantly searching for new bands and soaking up new sounds Picture Quote #1

... some people aren’t worth the trouble of being kind to, because they have neither the brains nor the power to make something for themselves out of your kindness Picture Quote #1

Not being able to protect her from things was the most frightening thing I’d ever felt, and it kicked in as soon as we got together. With every year we spent together, I became more conscious that I now had an infinitely expanding number of reasons to be afraid. I had something to lose Picture Quote #1

If the girls keep dancing, everybody’s happy. If the girls don’t dance, nobody’s happy Picture Quote #1

She was the first person on either side of her family to go to college, and she held herself to insanely high standards. She worried a lot about whether she was good enough.
