Ridiculous.

Just received a promo of a band called Zox. Yeah, you've probably heard of 'em — they're up here a lot.

The sticker on the shrinkwrap says:

For fans of Sublime, Jack Johnson, Guster, Pixies, and the Cure.

WTF? That's no way to market a record!

Might as well be:

For fans of Coldplay, Anal Cunt, Clay Aiken, Merzbow, and Raffi.
