The 1001 Albums Challenge # 138: Limp Bizkit – “Chocolate Starfish and The Hot Dog Flavored Water” 

A lot of this world’s problems and most of its very bad music comes from white dudes with daddy issues. And I was reminded of that finally listening to Limp Bizkit’s breakthrough album. I was reflecting on how lucky I was to be completely above (and beyond) nu-metal in all its numb-skull variations. I was ‘too […]

It Was The Worst: # 10 Reviewing What THE KIDS Are Listening To…

Well, it’s charitable to suggest they’re listening – more a case of being in the same room and lining up a selfie to post to Justin’s Bebo – he’s gonna be so pissed his square-ass mum and dad wouldn’t let him out of the house…he’s just a whipped little pussy… I’m a veteran of three […]
