THIS IS CRAZY.  NO, LEGIT CRAZY: Have you either thought "gosh, I like Nine Inch Nails, but I feel that it would be improved if Trent Reznor was screaming his nihilism over a much poppier riff?"  No?  Well, maybe you should, since we now have "Call Me A Hole."

ETA: In other Carly Rae Jepsen news, she and Train have both pulled out of playing at this summer's Boy Scout Jamboree, citing the organization's policies on gays.   Of course, not quite sure how many Boy Scouts were crying out for performances by Carly Rae Jepsen and Train, but...

  7. Well, depending on when the deals were signed, kind of. Earlier this year, it was strongly signaled that the ban was coming down, but the executive board punted a couple of months ago, saying "we need the full council to vote." It's actually an admirable attempt to pressure, since the full vote is scheduled for May.
