[Death Metal Moe]

i could be mistaken, but when they started talkin about this thread on the air earlier they credited it to Judge Smails...should it be Eli getting props for that last hour of the show?<br />

<p>Anna Nalick - Breathe</p><p>Lightning Crashes - Live</p>

[King Imp]

<p>If this isn't a clear cut indication that music sucks these days, I don't know what is. Half of those I've never even heard of and the other half are not good enough to even earn a mention as a &quot;best of&quot; song. </p>
