As much as I like Pixies and Clutch, I can't say I'm a big fan of nonsense lyrics. They are kinda annoying.

Ultimately Buckley had more potential in him than I think he had fully realized greatness, but there are 4-5 songs on Grace I really, really love, chief among them "Corpus Christi Carol." Man that's a lovely tune.

Andrew Bird took the reins but added whistling to make up for the lack of vocal range

I guess I like actual good musicianship. The Clash strikes me as all (distasteful) attitude.

I don't mean to be a dick here, but this makes me think of you as kinda young.
Or perhaps more accurately, me as old.

I just don't vibe with the style. i know it's unpopular of me ... I guess I'd maybe compare it to like, maybe The White Stripes? In that the style is more than the substance. But I like the white stripes
