If you're anything like me, you don't need to be reminded that yet another record that shaped your musical upbringing is twenty fucking years old. But Liz Phair's Exile in Guyville was recorded in 1993, and it's a good thing because Jessica Hopper has pulled together an oral history for Spin that will make you forget all about whitechocolatespaceegg and send you careening back to the days when indie rock was a dude thing and girls didn't play guitar and a record by a young lady that mentioned sexy parts but also wasn't explicitly for dancing was novel enough to merit attention from NPR and ladies like Liz Phair were hanging out with Winona Ryder and Rosanna Arquette backstage at Beck shows (above).

This is neat: Matador Records released these three songs performed by Interpol at Music Hall of Williamsburg at the same time the band starts out on a new tour. How can this be made even better? Have Fred Armisen host.

A young Mexican matador was arrested for breach of contract Sunday after he dropped his cape and fled the horns of a raging half-ton bull. After his release he said, "I didn't have the balls, this is not my thing."
