Champagne bubbles, they're goin' flat

So, I'll be honest here: I hold quite a few prejudices that I'm trying to overcome. They're really stupid and unnecessary, really. But isn't that with all prejudices?

For example, I'm reluctant to listen to

• anything that came out past '98 (i.e. Xiu Xiu)
  
• bands named after books/literary heroes/characters/etc. (i.e. Josef K)
  
• bands with names similar to that of other, awful bands (i.e. "Built to Spill" sounds like "The Spill Canvas")
• bands that everyone knows (i.e. Black Flag)
  

And I'll really want to check out bands that

• Have cool sounding names (i.e. Bang Camaro)
• My dad likes (i.e. Wire)
• No one has ever heard of (i.e. Fischer-Z)
• Are post-punk (i.e. Joy Division)

Why? Because I am a weirdo. In fact, all of the bands I listed (with the exception of The Spill Canvas) I either really, really like or I love.
But for some reason I was really reluctant to check out Josef K until last night, because I did an awesome thing and looked at the Wikipedia list of post-punk bands and music binged.
I've come out of said binge with The Au Pairs, Josef K, The Alarm, Fischer-Z, and a re-kindled love for Spacemen 3
Out of the bands I checked out, I think the only ones I didn't like were Fra Lippo Lippi and Scritti Polliti, both of which were too new-wave for my liking. However, I liked both of their names, so I kind of want to take their names and put them with not-new-wave bands.

Well, I need to find some way to occupy my day today, even though I'm still quite sick.
Ta-Ta.

P.S. I really, really, REAAAAALLLLLYYYY hate New-Wave.

P.P.S I REALLLLLLLLY CAN'T WAIT FOR "WOMEN AS LOVERS"
