Insane, inscrutable, and angelic, Montreal artist
Grimes's vocal melodies float on a barely subdued monster beat that threatens to uproot buildings and put holes in the ground.

Why Are The Six Best Restaurants in New York All French? Because
William Grimes from the
New York Times is a massive, provincial, toadying snob, that's why says so. [
NYT reg. req.] With his haughty tone, architectural blatherings and
whiney voice [
Real Video link] he's undoubtedly my pet hate among
restaurant critics, even though he obviously knows his stuff, not to mention a thing or two about cocktails [
here is his take on the Martini]. My favourite
critics are GQ's
Alan Richman and the
Anti-Grimes himself, a man who truly knows his food,
Robert Sietsema of
The Village Voice. What critics get
your goat or vote? Which ones are worth reading and following? More importantly, which ones - or anonymous restaurant guides, like
Zagat's, can you trust,
if any?
