the Vaselines -- Dum Dum

  Heavily influential, garagy grunge shoegaze band The Vaselines.  They seem to pick up on anything and everything that's cool and toss it into their timeless sound.  They're one of those bands you wish were more popular, but are secretly glad they aren't because you are so hip that no one knows them except you, some of your friends, and a couple of rock stars.  I doubt they knew what kinda impact they have on the face of music at the time, but some of the best music was made that way.  I hope all the hipsters won't thrist for my blood, I just let the cat outta the bag, but don't worry the jock nerds never caught wind of them then (you know what year), I doubt they will now!  "MEEEOW!"
