I saw a girl wearing a Misfits shirt the other day. It saddens me to know that they either think it's just a design, or a really bad (version of a) band. Because trust me, this was one of those girls who wouldn't know good music if it was in her face.
But I like the parallel drawn here -- In a lot of ways, so-called Sublime is doing exactly what the so-called Misfits did. Take a decently-popular name and attach it to something it was never meant to represent.
