There are few classic rock bands I find more dull than Bad Company. But hey, that's only like, my opinion, man.

Says the Professor who doesn't know the difference between falls and fall's or below and bellow. F**k my life.

The new Stooges album is much better than it has any right to be.

Definitely an original talent. 49 is too young.

Yeah, I definitely get the Liz Phair comparison with that song.

Very timely. That's a perfect example of a much-hyped album that didn't do much for me.

No Other One - Weezer

Usually when a new artist gets blown up by a bunch of hype I treat it with some skepticism, but Jake Bugg is the real deal. He's a British songwriter who is steeped in his influences, from Oasis to the Beatles to Dylan, but he definitely combines them into his own voice. I'd recommend this guy to the SF community, he could have come right out of the 60s.

Ripely Pine by Lady Lamb the Beekeeper is the early contender for debut album of the year.

Heart of Oak by Anciients is easily the best metal album of the year so far. At least until the new Sabbath comes out...

Another well-hyped band that's earned all the acclaim: Savages. Their debut, Silence Yourself, is AMAZING.
