Most of this blog is about stuff I like but occasionally I hear stuff I just don't get.I can listen to most things once but there’s a bunch of stuff my friends seem to like that I just don’t understand. Pearl Jam for one – and to be honest most of that Seattle grunge thing. Bad hard-ish rock in checked shirts. U2 – too much angst and Bono too. Do we really need stadium bands anymore? Lucinda Williams – everyone seems to think she’s the real deal but I just find her phony. Lyle Lovett – I wouldn’t mind him if he didn’t sound exactly like Jesse Winchester – and Jesse does all this stuff so much better. Prog rock and most metal (there’s the occasional single or bands like the Darkness who really are quite fun). I don’t know but who relates to this stuff. What exactly is it trying to say. It’s either about bulges in jeans or druids – or some weird mythology thing. Isn’t it 2009? And the fact that these guys can really play wearing silly clothes is just a waste of a youth…
