I had pubes when I was eleven

I hate you Stylus. Brad Shoup in this article admits to being fourteen years old in 1996, and to listening almost exclusively to Christian rock until 2000. His article about Nevermind should really be titled, "Thoughts on an album I was too young to understand at the time." This asshole was 12 when Cobain killed himself so excuse me if I don't really take him seriously when tries to explain what Nevermind meant when it was released. Holding Nirvana responsible for the sins of Creed is fair, I suppose, but if you want to travel down that road than the only good rock music was made by a bunch black guys down south that never recorded a record and who history has passed by. You want to write about the music Brad Shoup, that's fine by me, but next time Stylus wants to talk about the historical significance of an album try to find a guy to write about it who at least had pubes when the thing came out.

It's one for the list, anyway:
