Brandi Carlile Performs 'The Story' and 'You and Me on the Rock' on SNL There are three certainties in life: death, taxes, and year-end lists. So with each go-round, I have a harder time writing these intros — gazing down at the meticulously formatted blurbs and thinking, “What can I possibly say in 100 words that would astutely summarize another 12 months of indie-rock, hip-hop, R&B, metal, electronica, jazz-fusion, and whatever weird shit we managed to squeeze in?” But wait — maybe that admission is enough of a mission. There is no through-line of 2022, just like there wasn’t for 2021 or any other year. Music is a web, and the joy of these lists is getting yourself all twisted...

Whether you’re uphilling in the backcountry or pounding powder laps at the resort, these are the best pants for snowboarding and splitboarding. Keeping your feet and torso toasty is key to a happy riding day, but don’t sleep on the importance of pants.

The best designs fit just right without falling down or being restrictive. In athletic pairs, the knees are articulated and the legs are tapered. The hems need to be wide to seamlessly pair with the bulky neck of snowboard boots and easy to unzip to adjust boot fit midday. Depending...

X-Men Epic Collection: X-Cutioner’s Song features the collective X-Men titles at arguably their most tumultuous time. Less than a year before the earliest issues collected in this volume were published, the X-Men were at the height of their powers, coming out of a successful linewide relaunch led by superstar artists which propelled the books to record-breaking sales. Yet less than halfway through this volume, those creators are gone, left to start a new comic book company in what is sometimes called the “Image Exodus.” A new batch of creators, most untested in such a bright spotlight, were then forced to learn on the job while picking up the pieces left behind by the exodus, while also somehow crafting those pieces...
