TOD- "10 Essential Albums in Tim Karan's Collection He Should Be Ashamed of"

So flipping through this months issue of Alternative Press, I found an article about how some of the employees at AP raided the associate editors CD collection and forced him to make a list of CDs hes ashamed of having. This is what he wrote about it:

Quote:
What can I say? I've got a weakness for Amy Lee. It's a genuine problem-- especially at the AP skyscraper, where my secret has leaked, resulting in the mocking forward of every Evanescence related press release six times over. The Open Door isn't nearly as pompous as the ridiculous Van Helsing-esque videos would have you believe. Admittedly, some of the lyrics are iffy at best ('Lithium,' Im looking in your direction.) but the chops are there. Call me whenever you want, Amy. I don't care if you're sober. Actually, it'd probably be best if you werent.
I found it a pretty funny read. Most of you probably are going to go z0mgz TOD best album eeeevvverrrr-- But you gotta remember this magazine basically caters to the emo/screamo scene, so take it at face value.

Some other artists:

Chevelle
Days of the New
Institute
Jesus Jones
Scorpions with the Berliner PhilHarmoniker
Sevendust
Duncan Sheik
Britney Spears
Vanilla Ice

THAT made me laugh. LOL.

I think that was funny. I like how it's lighthearted, not like 'z0mg they sux0rz'.

People shouldn't take that seriously, cause I really don't think it's meant to be serious. It's funny though.
