"To break someone's face" is a realively common expression.
If said face has a certain mineraloid hardness and smoothness, a punch that breaks, or, to be precise, slightly cracks it, might facet it. Although employing the word "facet" as a verb is somewhat novel.

This is when it's annoying waiting for Batty to wake up and scrub the **** and semen off him, and come join us.

Don't get me started about those encrusted Americans in their weird-ass time zones.

In the 90s it was very much respected artists in various genres: Radiohead, Eminem, Tool, Massive Attack, Type O Negative, Rage Against The Machine, Portishead. I can't mention all important bands... but now?
It takes about 15 years for the dust to settle and for people to decide who the really big stars were. I was a teenager in the 80s and I remember people saying exactly the same thing.

Cut it down to 5 years and I'll agree. If you can come out of the gate, slam home a few solid albums, have a couple of major hits, and be discussed by the masses?

Star baby.

Album sales equals star power. Rihanna is a prime example. Adele, Jennifer Lopez, Nikki Minaj, Beyonce, Insert any other female vocalist with multi platinum success. But then how has that changed? It hasn't the same dire plot re-hashed for somebody elses kids, over and over and over.
