Everclear, those crap mongers who would live beside the ocean leave you far behind in like 1995. During they're heyday I was listening mainly to Screeching Weasel, whose heyday was occuring at about the same time. Three weeks ago I was inexplicable drawn like a moth to a fucking lightbulb to the Everclear official website. And ladies, it's bad, too. I would not recommend a visit. Lots of soul patchery and fake fade jeans and band logo thongs--what Matt Dillon's character called "beer and lifestyle music" in the movie Singles just a few years before the mutual Everclear, Screeching Weasel heyday. I suppose I did appreciate them then for ushering out grunge, which I found and still find unrelatable. The radio was not so unsafe anymore.</p> <p><a href="http://www.punkplanet.com/apr/blog/just_hear_me_out_on_this_one_art_everclear_and_ben_weasel_are_like_total_soul_mates_im_sorry_i_mean_soul_brothers">read more</a></p> http://www.punkplanet.com/apr/blog/just_hear_me_out_on_this_one_art_everclear_and_ben_weasel_are_like_total_soul_mates_im_sorry_i_mean_soul_brothers#comment 1990s bands frontmen ramblings reviews Thu, 19 Oct 2006 23:27:04 -0400 apr 678 at http://www.punkplanet.com
