jobu is sleeping in so I decided to find a song about Matt Moore.
get ready to feel old: nevermind came out 20 years ago tomorrow. oy. anyway, here's one of the great moments in rock n' roll, and certainly one of the last great moments on the MTV. from said network's music video awards, rape me lithium.

many thanks to DK for a great week. please forgive me for jumping on his coattails and also playing a band with 2+ established singers. chicago based urge overkill should have received a lot more love than they did, but, alas, it was not to be. nash and the king traded off vocal duties about 50/50, but it's nash taking the mic on this track.

please ignore the team rocket-esque t-shirts; they really were one of the best dressed bands in the business. also, nash, while being one of the ugliest men in rock 'n' roll, had one of the best voices in my opinion, and some nice chops besides.
Sure, Frogstomp was a pretty big deal. But man, Silverchair really matured with their second record.

Man, I used to say some stupid stuff in High School.
now, i can't admit to soul coughing being extremely influential on a young joe's life. i definitely dug on them though. in fact, a very feverish young joe (which was a rare occasion, no matter what he occasionally told his parents early on school day mornings) saw them headlining at first avenue with low opening. if you're going to go to a show semi-out of your mind (non-chemically enhanced-- wait, or highly chemically enhanced too, i suppose), i might recommend low/soul coughing.

When Fountains of Wayne released their self titled album I remember hearing "Radiation Vibe" on the New Music show on CFNY. I was in 8th grade and fell in love with the band. Sadly, with it being high school, most people were listening to terrible music like Creed instead. I was in 10th grade when FOW released Utopia Parkway. The album itself wasn't as good as their first effort but man, this tune really spoke to a 16 year old Hitman. 1998 was still the sort of early days of the internet and I e-mailed Fountains of Wayne telling them how much this song ruled and how it should be a number one hit. A couple of days later I got a response telling me how their label released their record the same week as Creed released their album and the Creed disc got all the promotion while their album got no push. I was devestated and vowed to myself to hate Creed forever.

It was a pretty easy promise to make to myself.
summer's dwindling down, but here's a cut from one of my favorite summer albums of all time.

it's a shame these guys could never match the success of the bizarre ride II. `tis one of my favorite hip hop albums.
After about 1:30 of banter, probably my favorite Cake song.
