Like the hokey pokey, the Thom Siblog isn't clear on what it is all about.

The Thom Siblog lacks a manifesto and with good reason: I'm not really sure where it is going and I don't feel like putting parameters on it this soon.

One thing I know I'll be doing is revisiting albums from my past to see if they still hold up. And I'm not talking about My Bloody Valentine, or even Slanted and Enchanted. I'm tired of reading about the same in vogue artists and I'd like to shine some light on some bands that are not critical darlings and probably never were. Meaning, bands we loved when we were young that we wouldn't go bragging about at dinner parties (e.g., "I attended 5 Warped Tours in a row!) but should still feel some love regardless. That isn't to say some traditionally "cool" artists won't be featured, but right now I'm taking inventory of the 90's.

With that said, I present to you the first album revisit: The Mighty Mighty Bosstones' Question the Answers.
