J Church: "If I'm Lonely..." (1994)

As I've mentioned previously, I was going to therapy due to depression over my dad dying. As I was in there with the therapist, I was babbling about some other shit, like how I spend a lot of time alone but am rarely lonely. The therapist made me feel really good about it -- I don't need to be out and about just because society says I have to have a social life. It got me thinking about the old J Church song "If I'm Lonely", especially the line: "If I'm lonely, then I got nothing to do". So true, because if I'm busy -- as I usually am -- I'm not gonna get all down in the dumps and suffer from self-pity.

Cringer: "Step Back" (1990)

Cringer came to the Berkeley area from Hawaii, after first making a pit stop in L.A. This song is from their 7" Karin -- a nice, solid four-song record full of pop-punking goodness. Cringer, of course, eventually morphed into one of my favorite bands, J Church.
