So, I've been relistening to that good old record Sixteen Stone (Bush)... and I'll start by pointing out the obvious, so nobody else has to: it's a blind Nirvana rip-off, it's uninnovative, it's derivative, unoriginal, and so on and so forth.

But the music itself, for what it is (i.e. a bit of post-grunge), is really pretty damn good! The album's a consistent one, with the odd weak track here and there but generally with good enough material throughout, with at least five proper good (to listen to) grunge songs (Everything Zen, Little Things, Comedown, Machinehead and Glycerine) that make it virtually unmissable for your simple fan of the grunge sound (as opposed to your dumbass purist).

Who agrees with me that for what it is, this is really a pretty damn good album?
