OFF: Lame 80s pop teen horror

[ANDREW GARIBALDI]

The obvious one to cite is Robbie Williams - I hate the guy's stuff, but it
sure as hell ain't manufactured (christ! - my wife actually used to serve
him with his records when he was back on the way from school, many years
back!!).
Then there are several of the USA female rap acts who, while they all sound
the same as each other, aren't by the way I'm defining it, manufactured.
It's really mainly  the UK boy-girl pop acts that are of this ilk, I think,
although pseudo-angry bands like Blink 182 make me laugh, and the best two
singles around right now are System Of A Down's "Chop Suey" and Andrew WK's
"Party Hard" - I look forward to the torrents of abuse over this posting!!!
