They have this new channel on Sirius now. Its called Lithium. Its supposed to be all 90's alternative and grunge rock. The stuff I grew up on. For my part they could throw in some Metallica too, but I guess that's not their mandate.

For some asinine reason they keep playing Cake. That crap wasn't good back in the 90's and it sure as hell isn't good now. They only had ONE song that got any radio airplay, and that one sucked ass anyway. Why they keep playing more crap from the same crappy band, I can no ascertain.

The point of this post is to make note of something that I think has been forgotten. Being a 90's alternative channel, they play a lot of Pearl Jam. A lot. Especially the first album, Ten. I've probably heard half the songs from that album now. And even though its 15 years later, they're still kick ass songs. As albums go, you can't really judge them by the collective anymore. An album seems to be, just a collection of singles in present day. But Ten was an album. And by my estimation, it has to be either the best, or one of the best, rock albums of my generation.

Take that for what its worth.

Blog Question Of The Day:

Did you ever think a metal song was sounding pretty good and then they came in with some absolutely brutal lyrics?

Blog Question Of The Day:

In Clerks II we discover what happens to Dante Hicks and Randal Graves, 10 years later. What about all the other characters from the View Askewniverse? Whatever happened to Brandy Svennig and Brodie Bruce?
Mallrats is an entirely under-rated movie.
