bad religion

The best political punk out there. After 25 years, the balding band is still holding their own on the Warped Tour, and Brett Gurewitz is sexier than ever.

Bad Religion is smarter than you.

Sex Pistols

Greatest punk band of all time. Fronted by John Lydon/Johnny Rotten, final lineup also consisted of Sid Vicious, Steve Jones, and Paul Cook. Greatest hit was most definitely "Anarchy in the UK", but "Bodies" and "Seventeen", often overlooked, are overall better songs.

The Sex Pistols may not have invented punk, but they redefined it. No future for you.

Johnny Rotten

Disturbingly hot lead singer for the Sex Pistols and Public Image Ltd. Wrote songs for the Sex Pistols (highlight: "Bodies", describing an abortion) and PiL. Also penned "No Irish, No Blacks, No Dogs", an autobiographical work with two writers whose names I can't seem to remember.

Johnny Rotten is sexier than you.

the cure

The kind of band that can lift you up when you listen to them. I can't help but smile when I listen to a Cure song. Especially "Inbetween Days"... *sigh*

Oh, and Robert Smith...*deeper sigh*

You need to listen to the Cure.

American Idol

Entertainment for people with no lives.

The only two good things about American Idol are Simon Cowell (hot) and Constantine Maroulis (hotter).
