The Ledge #607: Love Stinks

Anti-love songs is a rock and roll specialty. From the very beginning of the genre, writers with a poison pen have created a plethora of material that is not exactly Hallmark card material. Tonight's show celebrates tracks of this time, highlighted by a number of more recent tracks of that sort. But that doesn't mean there isn't room for oldies, as there are garage rockers from the 60s, power pop from the 70s, and some good ol' alternative rockers from the 80s. And, of course, it's also an opportunity for an extended set from the greatest self-loathing rockers, The Replacements. I mean, come on, you can't have a show of this sort without "Valentine".
