Lit

Lit's 1999 record toned down any rough edges that might have been found on their first two albums and happily jumped onto the mainstream radio dial. Bolstered by the success of "My Own Worst Enemy," the album's Post-Grunge, radio pop found home in the bedroom of many a teenager.

Led by two Orange County lads whose dad was a pop DJ, they like Vegas and old Cadillacs, make too much of their play on "come," "complete," and "completely miserable," and serve as a dull-dull-dull reminder to anyone besotted with Blink 182 that punk in itself guaranteed nothing even in the days of the Real Kids and the Suicide Commandos.
