8:10: Agreed about that group of bands -- in fact I can't stand most of the ones you mention-- but Wig Out is a stand out of the genre. Yes, it's not the kind of thing one can listen to over and over again, but when you haven't heard in a long time, it sounds great to put it on. And, in my case, there's the nostalgia.
Observations from an old cranky jerk who happens to be a professional philosopher. Occasionally philosophical, most often just vulgar. Sometimes focused on sober points of logic and issues in political theory, but more frequently fixed on nonsense. Bad metal bands, crappy guitarists, stupid lyrics, celebrities, pop "culture," telemarketers, irrationality, and other annoyances. Always misanthropic. Anti-religious. Not particularly amusing, either. Some might say insulting. Strange mail. Kook magnet. Doom. Comments from other cranky jerks, young and old.

Can I Say > Wig Out at Denko's
Yeah, I used to be into that Dag nasty/down by law/All/descendents type stuff, but it's really too emo, and grinds after a while, don't you think?
7:50: No way!

The only Dave Smalley band I can stomach is DYS. (OK, Wig Out is w/ Cortner. Oh well.)
