Fair point, though debatable regarding anything post-Fugazi.
As for the lyrics, I have no idea. It all seems to come together if you're off your face though.
They didn't even have the decency to cover Are Friends Electric though. It was only good because it was exactly the same song, with different lyrics. You can't seriously give them any credit for that?
They're just another derivative girl band knocking out songs that aren't bad per se, just not very good. It's instantly forgettable ear candy. Bananarama, on the other hand...
