Depending on your music tastes and preferences, this either means absolutely nothing to you or probably indicates that this is some serious, noisy, ballsy, heavy shit. I mean, this is the guy who recorded an album called Songs About Fucking with his band Big Black and produced landmark albums such as In Utero (Nirvana), Rid of Me (PJ Harvey) and Surfer Rosa (The Pixies). You’d be hard pressed to find a producer with a more impressive resume, yet we find him teaming up with The Cloud Cult that, until recently, consisted of nothing more than one guy (Dylan Baldi) in his parents’ house recording mediocre lo-fi alt-punk that owed more stylistic allegiance to corporate Emo than anything else.

Being especially aware and in tune at the time, went outside the inn he was in and pissed out the god-given Code in a bank of snow.Linch ZhangOpinion Piece: Best New Artist Snubhttp://www.thecornellian.com/archives/viewarticle.php?viewID=1328Earlier this month, the 54th annual Grammy Awards were presented. The ceremony went without much controversy and was praised for promoting the talent of the musician rather than sheer showmanship. However, the National Academy of Recording Arts and Science committed an injustice when they passed over The Civil Wars and did not nominate them for Best New Artist.Josh BoegnerBlack History Month Show: African Americans in the Arts!http://www.thecornellian.com/archives/viewarticle.php?viewID=1329The Black History Month Show rested almost solely on the shoulders of my committee members, Jayde Fair (15) and Raven Fredieu (15), and I (Angelica Hall (15) , the committee chair). It took about a total of four months to plan for the performance, but after two nights of the show, I feel that it was well worth it. The show turned out amazing!! Every act was brilliant. Each performance brought their A-game each night and really “EDU-TAINED” the audience. Each act had a special meaning and significance.Angelica HallCapitol Steps Gets a Capitol Ahttp://www.thecornellian.com/archives/viewarticle.php?viewID=1330Washington, D.C. has always been a weirdly funny place. Sometimes, it seems like attempts to lampoon it are just redundant. Thankfully, in their recent Cornell performance, the comedy group known as Capitol Steps had enough energy and wit for some truly winning satire. They even managed to make a bit about Bob Dole funny.Noah MunozPurple Prose: Local Student Announces Disbelief in Godhttp://www.thecornellian.com/archives/viewarticle.php?viewID=1331Local student Sally May Beauregaurd announced Tuesday that she is an atheist, and now prefers to be called Morde Death VonLucifer.

This MLB off season we saw many changes taking place.

John Barron Bremner, a man who has held the positions of athletic director, head wrestling coach, assistant tennis coach, chair of the physical education department, special assistant to former President Secor and many other positions on the campus, passed away on February 12 at the age of 75 after an extended bout with cancer.Dyonis MillerA Call To Lifehttp://www.thecornellian.com/archives/viewarticle.php?viewID=1335Where does life end and life begin? I can’t seem to find out. I can’t seem to understand why one movie seems to stop playing when class ends at 3:00 and another begins right after. I think our generation has become particularly adept at changing our inner channels. I go to class, raise my hand to offer insightful comments and pose intelligent questions, but let the hour hand pass 3:00 and the “insightful student me” retreats into the fold, making way for “the real me”: the self that doesn’t need to please the professor, win the grade or the competitive wars of life and success; the self who is just looking for a good time.Gerin Eaton
