i'm trying to figure out if blink 182's 'feelin this' or 'figured you out' by nickelback is the most sinisterly anti-woman clap coming out of the nu-metal basement at the moment. that nickelback song makes my skin crawl when i hear it, i mean, at least puddle of mudd is self hating (when not blatently kurt ash-kissing) and linkin park writes one banal but decent song (over and over, love that smashed turntable in the numb video), but nickelback does like dean and just drops mention of that confed flag wit their trailertrash, inarticulate violence ridden angry boyfriend bullshit. all the christina a + lil' kim synergy in the world doesn't seem to be stopping it.

all this i learned while lying on the couch watchingall corporate things that pretend to rock, where i was surprised to learn that the guys from jet actually take themselves seriously enough to put their own likenesses in a video. shocking! and it looks like an '80s gap ad, with ya-baby go go dancers and a plexi floor drop so you can know, 'it's all about the shoes.'
