What the hell is going on?

Johnny Marr has joined Modest Mouse for their new album. Yes, that Johnny Marr.
Let's get this straight Johnny. You can join a vastly overrated college rock shit band, a band that reminds you of sandles, lacrosse and everything else terrible that goes on at college campuses. Yet you can't bury the hatchet with one of the top three lyricists in the last 30 years to reform the most important band of the 80s.
I've always sided with Morrissey, but I've always had great respect for Marr. But now? Marr is an idiot. Modest Mouse? Really?!?!

In other "what the hell is going on news" Chris Cornell (lead vox for Soundgarden and Audioslave) has announced that his second solo album will contain a cover of "Billie Jean." Yes, that "Billie Jean." What?!?!

  • Ah, come on Mike. I mean, lacrosse is really only an northeastern seaboard kind of thing. I think frisbee when I hear Modest Mouse.

  • Oh please no...why would someone ever want to try to cover "Billie Jean"? It's doomed to failure.
