The Hives -- Veni Vidi Vicious

  Man I thought these guys were the shit when this album came out, but now I could barely stand a few minutes of this over produced, mega poppy, revival shtick music.

Flamin' Groovies -- Now

  This 1978 not so good but not so bad release by 60's Garage luminaries the Flamin' Groovies.  Here you have an older band trying to keep up with the times, but still pumping out some pretty decent tunes.  Now the album sounds like Jangly  Power Pop, it's a nice try, but just isn't good enough. 

Big Star -- # 1 Record

  What do you get when you mix the good parts from Led Zeppelin III, T. Rex and Parsons era Byrds ... this epic debut album by Big Star # 1 Record.
