lars and the bastards vindicated themselvs by naming the band the name they did. they had a few good songs... freeman rips the bass fa sho tho... and i have no desire to ever own a transp-lants cd... basically if the kids that work at the music store are into a band, i know not to listen to it, and sure enough, the other day i was in and one of em was sportin a transplants shirt... end of story. iv just decided to listen exclusivly to hot hot heat for the rest of my life.
