I can't even frickin' believe that this album exists:

LEAST ESSENTIAL TRIBUTE ALBUM

Various Artists

The Acoustic Coffee House Presents: A Female Tribute To Creed (Buy It!)

As someone named Bill Lefler strums away on an acoustic guitar with the care and cautious tempo of a first-year student, a parade of emotion-drained, seemingly identical singers with names like "Marmalade" and "Susannah B" work their way through the Creed catalog. Believe it or not, "With Arms Wide Open" and "Higher" can sound worse than they already do.


And the hysterical part is that there's a link to "buy it!" after every album listed. Waa haa haa haa………….

I would say any Interpol CD fits this category perfectly…even more so if you own any Joy Division albums.

That sentence makes no sense whatsoever.

perhaps a hyphen would clear up the meaning…

Hey you know what sucks? I actually own 2 Stabbing Westward albums.

"relive a tragic and pimply mid-'90s adolescence"

Yeah, that sounds pretty accurate. Except for the pimples. I don't get pimples. And the mid-'90s thing. I think I'm still an adolescent. Whatever. The point is, I can't believe I wasted money on those shitty albums.

Thank you, you can teach both Rhett and myself the art of spelling and grammar.

Marr a has-been? That's fresh coming from a Wilco fan.
