LAST LISTENED TO yesterday
CHANCE OF WAKING TO IT reesinibul
RATING
The power of the Ig: who can deny it? Here i am having spent a good deal of time being at best indifferent to Green Day and yet now, with this one tune, i'm beginning to wonder if maybe they're actually ok. I may even investigate further. Most odd.
In 2003 Mr. Pop put out this album that sees him playing with a total of 6 different bands. The results are fairly diverse and rather entertaining. It comes as little surprise that best of the bunch are the four tracks recorded with the re-formed Stooges (hurrah!). What is a surprise is that the young upstarts don't come out sounding too bad. Even Sum 41!
Supermarket to me sounds like a fairly standard new punk number. It may not have the meters-in-the-red craziness of The Stooges, but even so the guitars and bass all sound just right for their idiom and there are more than enough hooks for any one track. There's also a nice anti-corporate message, the irony of which does make one smirk some. Well meant, though, i guess.
