I dusted off my copy of Cake's platinum-selling, yet still under-appreciated 1996 album "Fashion Nugget." It brought me back to getting off the school bus, zoned in on the tunes squirting out the Walkman into my ear drums through some big-ass headphones as I walked down the hallway extra slow, sneering at my classmates with an undeserved sense of cultural superiority. Nostalgia's a bitch, and I felt like making the playlist I would have at that age if I had a CD burner.

2) Cake - Italion Leather Sofa
3) Beck - Devil's haircut
4) Beck - Where It's At

10) Ben Folds Five - One Angry Dwarf and 200 Solemn Faces
11) Ben Folds Five - Battle of Who Could Care Less

Holy shit, I would have made a very similar playlist, also starting with Nugget "shut the fuck up... right.. yeah" but would have added "Truck Driving Neighbors Downstairs" from Beck's Mellow Gold, "People of the Sun" by Rage, and for the gold.... "Pure Massacre" or "Isaac's Son" by Silverchair. Rawk. CD would be pretty long then eh. Heh.
haha holy shit I wore out my copy of Frogstomp also ... and would have prolly included it if track-list length would have allowed.
