ok... only decent things worth winning anything on the damn list are audioslave, outkast, the roots, i guess coldplay, and the production value of the justin timberlake album was really damn good as much as i hate him. Im sorry, but evanescence blows horribly. waaayyyyyy ovverated.

Yeah Outkast is awesome but Audioslave sucks.....

Good call.
Eat sh*t! :p Audioslave's album actually kicks a good bit of ass.

I can't say how outkast is because I still have yet to hear a single song by them. Not sure how they slip by, but nothing in birmingham plays them (unless that gangsta rap station does, and I wouldn't know in that case).

I forgot to put my <sarcasm> tags in there. Outkast sucks an incredible amount of @ss compared to Audioslave. In fact, most of the trash on those Outkast CDs is plain worthless jibberish. Sure there are few catchy songs, but to compare them to real band with actual, *gasp*, songs is just wrong.
