Go listen again, the stuff I just heard was some straight up pure queen awesomeness, now get over yourselves and go take another listen. Jesus, some of you guys can be so fucking insufferable, but you love some of the shittiest music ever just because you're supposed to or because you found it first (regurgitated it first).

Dog Problems just happens to be in my top ten all time, so its no surprise that I dont feel the new band material measures up. However Ive only heard the first fun. record so when the new one gets here Ill happily embrace it.

Maybe Phil just forgot who the Obners are. Hi, I'm wenchlette, I like matchbox twenty. Meet timmyjoe, he likes Collective Soul. Meet PopTodd, he likes Hanson. Meet Hegel, he likes Paramore. Meet Dalen.

Also, I wasn't as much a fan of the Format as some here, but Fun. is pretty good. It's predictable, but I cannot listen to "We Are Young" enough, though. I'm going to wear it out.
