Comment:

I simply just tried to mix a bunch of late grundge and anything ranging from punk to the ever infamous but sometimes undoubtfully catchy pop/punk to show emotions one could encounter during their high school year(s). It ranges from the cold and distant feel of "Tremor Christ" By Pearl Jam to the happy and upbeat musical feel of "Last Night" By The Strokes. It's a very unlikely mass of music, but I enjoyed making it.

This should be issued to teenagers upon entering freshman year. I know I would've made good use of it. Nice work!

i would have nixed some of the pop (e.g., the used, everclear, fenix tx)here, but most of it is right on the money. why didn't we think of this when i was high school?

Thank you all a lot. It really racked my brain and took me a while to make this. I basiclly made it for my friend because they haven't heard a lot of it before, and since we're both still in high school, I thought he'd dig it.

I don't love everything of course but you put my favourite Alkaline Trio track, one of my favourite Nirvana's and Nada Surf just fits the theme so well.. Good stuff. Congrats.
