    An average Misfits fan.​Personally, it's been the "One Bad Album" rule. That's all it takes for a band's musical reputation to be asterisked forever, which makes getting a tattoo of that band, well, risky.

    YouTube Music Discovery Project unceremoniously enters the fold

    Apparently Youtube launched a Pandora-esque service last week dubbed the Music Discovery Project with very little fanfare.
