| | They Might Be Giants Severe Tire Damage CD They Might Be Giants Discography of CDs
Since their inception in 1986, They Might Be Giants have been on a mission: to eradicate the self-important, angst-filled, navel-gazing aspects of rock music, and to remind us not to take things quite so seriously. The band pioneered a particular brand of nutty humor fleshed out with quirky, catchy pop-rock that has inspired a whole generation of musicians to write songs that don't necessarily mean anything, and to perform them with a breezy, it's-just-music attitude. Who can resist a song called "Doctor Worm," (one of the few new studio recordings on this mostly live album of mostly old favorites), which asserts "I'm interested in things/I'm not a real doctor, but I am a real worm/I am an actual worm/I live like a worm/I like to play the drums."

$110.59 Recorded between 1963 & 2003. Includes liner notes by Peter Doggett.
This box is a difficult thing to recommend, good -- no, make that great -- though it is. Partly, that's because it's almost too much of a great thing for most Hollies fans -- if they don't mind paying $120 for the six-CD U.K. import set, but most listeners aren't capitalized that way. And it does have its shortcomings, despite its cost. In contrast to, say, Crossroads by Eric Clapton, or Dreams by the Allman Brothers, it isn't where one could start listening to the Hollies -- there's too much that's not here, including "Bus Stop," and "Look Through Any Window." The shortcomings are understandable in a way, because between EMI in England, Sony Music in America (which still controls the Hollies classic sides from between 1966 and 1973 in that market), and sub-licensors like Disky in Holland, the Hollies may be the most heavily anthologized '60s British group this side of the Who; what to include, and how far to overlap existing collections become major problems, and they seem to have limited the hits to those that are biographically important in the band's history. such as "He Ain't Heavy He's My Brother," which re-established them commercially after Graham Nash's departure, or "Long Cool Woman in a Black Dress," which precipitated a major personnel crisis. Even with that limitation, there's almost too much here, at 136 tracks spanning 40 years. Disc One is certain to appeal to all of the group's fans, opening in 1963 with the first three tracks they ever recorded, the jangling "Hey, What's Wrong ...

Severe Tire Damage album
$5.99 If you made a soundtrack to the act of baking a cake on an electric chair, Walrus would be it. I'm serious. In terms of real-life bands, think 1997, The Anniversary, Mates of State, and Red Hot Valentines. The only catch is that while imagining all of these bands collaborating to form Walrus, you MUST imagine them doing this in a way that is very similar to how the Power Rangers form the Megazord. "20000 Leagues is a solid debut effort from a group of fresh-faced youngsters...While the sound of Walrus is fairly derivative of their influences, as far as I am concerned their influences are the right ones so in turn ...
