thumbs up! on Juliana Hatfield. I loved that album in HS--I only have it on cassette...I should really get the CD version.
The check. The string he dropped. The Mona Lisa. The musical notes taken out of a hat. The glass. The toy shotgun painting. The things he found. Therefore, everything seen–every object, that is, plus the process of looking at it–is a Duchamp.

Good for you--it's a four star in my book, but I agree that it's so underrated. The first 4 songs are incredibly original, imo.


Could someone please post all of these cute little Prince anime thingies?

Permission To Land has about four tracks that I like... and I gotta admit I really dug I Believe In A Thing Called Love when I first heard it. But as a whole I don't think the album is that good...

I actually think their 2nd is much better....


[Edited 3/20/06 5:19am]


Oh, but I wouldn't put it in my 5 Star albums.

All the songs I've heard from One Way Ticket To Hell are kinda of boring... but then again I ain't exactly the target audience for this kind of music anyway so... smile
It is not known why FuNkeNsteiN capitalizes his name as he does, though some speculate sunlight deficiency caused by the most pimpified white guy afro in Nordic history.
