Having played with the dude before, I can safely say Win is probably one of the lamest people on Earth. And he’s from the Woodlands…not Houston. BIG difference that should better explain the melancholic malaise only capable from over-privileged suburban brats like him. But despite the fact he’s a shithead, don’t really see the point in Wayne going after him…seems like a lose-lose for all parties involved.

I read that paragraph and did chuckle at the idea of Wayne and Win bitch slapping each other backstage somewhere. I guess my main point was more about the quality of work both artists have put out over the course of their respective careers.

you missed the most important quote… “Why take the high road? Might as well stoop to each of their levels and just make fun of them both.”

“Overrated Indie Rockers…”??

“Two grown men who each made about one great record apiece…”??

Overrated…? Really? I think most people (critics or not) would agree both Arcade Fire albums are very impressive, top to bottom. Same goes for every Flaming Lips album recorded between 1990-2002. Your credibility as a relevant source for music news and reviews is suffering as of late. It’s one thing for Rolling Stone to blow these comments out of water, but The Tripwire? Come on…
