It’s been quite a while since I did one of these but a recent discussion on this album totally warranted we revisit Awesomely Awful Albums! Bush’s Sixteen Stone used to drive me so crazy that I would stop associating with people who had this album in their CD collection! Or at the very least if I really cared about them I’d try and make them get rid of it and hounded them relentlessly until they did, Hahaha! Liking Bush would seriously distort my perception of you. In my defense, I was like 15 and stupidly pretentious but I guess that really isn’t much of a defense.

Well it’s been 14 years and my vitirol towards Bush and Bush fans has finally dissapated! The lyrics are still beyond awful, the music is still third rate Nirvana at best, BUT being we’re so far removed from the blatant poseuring I can at the very least enjoy this for what it is… an awesomely awful artifact of alterna-rock. I just hope this never happens with Candlebox, I will hate you till I die!

P.S. I’m sorry I made you stop liking Bush! You know who you are hahaha.
