The End of an Era

In three issues, Glenn McDonald is ending his weekly self published (mostly) music column, The War Against Silence. He will end with issue 500 (to state the mathematically obvious, that is almost 10 years of work). His homepage says that will end the "weekly run", so maybe that means we can look forward to an occasional column. However, we can no longer count on a fresh column when we wake up every Thursday morning, and that is a sad thing indeed. Go to this post to see what it takes to write the column, and you will understand why he is leaving the grind behind.

I don't always agree with Glenn's analysis, sometimes I am not even familiar with the bands he writes about (I know nothing about Japanese rock), and sometimes his tastes are too mainstream for me, but the column is always well written and thought provoking. Plus, I like reading other Harvard grad music geeks.
