Comment:

It's a little known fact that to make a bad song good, you turn it into a punk song! I'm not saying that all the songs on here are originally bad songs, but they just sound so much better when they're done by a punk band. Some real standouts on this mix are Limbecks version of that damn Backstreet Boys song, Alien Antfarm's rendition of Micheal Jackson's Smooth Criminal, and Gallery's version of that shitty dancefloor smash Blue by Eifle 65.

The hardest thing about making a mix like this is finding out which crappy punk band sang the damn thing. lol They all sound the same but fun nonetheless, cause it's more fun when it's punk. I think?

This mix kicks ass! I was doing a similar thing until I gave up cuz I didn't know the names of any of the bands.
