Rock and Roll Hall of Fame 2014 Inductees: The Debates Behind the Scenes
For something that doesn't really matter all that much, there are a whole lot of politics and outrage that go along with the inductees each year into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland. Every year, someone's favorite band gets snubbed, and someone's least favorite band somehow gets in, and everyone's feelings get hurt. Here's how I imagined the conversations went between the voters this year when they were decided which artists to induct. -

8 Albums that go against the theory of the sophomore slump: Radiohead, Nirvana, Neutral Milk Hotel and more
The theory of the "sophomore slump" is that an artist has their whole lives to create their first album, but then suffers creatively when they have only a short time to create their second. Andrew W.K., The Stone Roses, Television, Interpol, and Best Coast are all examples of artists who have fallen into this trap, but it's not as widespread as music historians may lead you to believe. There are a huge number of bands whose second albums either made up for the false start of their debuts, or rode their debut's success to even greater artistic heights.
