I think the Dead Man soundtrack is great, but there are no words.
Best review I have heard regarding his unlistenably caricaturish new album:
"It sounds like it was written by a 12-year-old raised by Democrats."

It's the same problem. No point of view or sentiment can make up for crappy unimaginative music.
Cutting Bikini Kill slack for being boring musicians because their "hearts are in the right place" is like weighting the grades of slow children more heavily, and basically devaluing the efforts of kids who are actually smart.
Music has to be able to survive on its own merits.
