Great? "Not altogether awful" I will accept, but "Great?"

I thought I was the Minister of Hyperbole in the IMCT Cabinet.
Whiskeytown is a great band. Faithless Street is a great album.

I guess his solo stuff is less that great, but mostly better than "not altogether awful"
Yeah, but he's saturated his career with no less that 600 mediocre albums in the past 38 minutes.

Hyperbole is the single greatest thing ever.

29 was pretty crappy, but most of his other solo efforts are pretty solid. And I liked his work on Willie Nelson's Songbird album. All in all, consistently above average albums with only one or two clunkers is pretty admirable output.

Also, Ryan Adams is the greatest man of all time

I nominate this post as the exact moment that Flex became singlehandedly responsible for the Armenian Genocide.

The Holocaust was many unspeakable things, but it was not cliché; Bryan Adams is incapable of anything but cliché. Hence, he could not be behind the Holocaust.

Well, the Holocaust is retroactively cliché. And Bryan Adams retroactively caused it.

Plus, did you ever notice every single song title of his is a cliche?
That song isn't a cliche. It's about the time he skinned his keyboard player and wore him as a suit.
