	Modest Mouse - "Tiny Cities Made of Ashes" From the "The Moon and Antartica" on Epic Records. Kirk: "(laughs)...(mimicking) So we're drinkin' drinkin' drinkin' drinkin' Coca Coca Cola.. This song sucks! Who wrote this crappy song? (His brother informs him) Are you sure it's not Mickey Mouse? (laughs) I still say it sucks. Where'd you get this from? (To his brother) Do YOU like this song? (His brother answers in the affirmative) Well you're a dork then! (His brother asks what he thinks of the singing) Stupid! (laughs) drinkin' drinkin' drinkin' drinkin' Coca Coca Coca Cola.. When is this crappy song going to be over? I like the music kind of. (His brother asks him what the singer sounds like) Like he's on crack. Stupid words, stupid singer, I like the music, the lyrics are pretty good. It's over!"
	A Perfect Circle - "Judith" From "Mer de Noms" on . Kirk: "I like the music, so far. I do not like the singer, 'cause he sounds like he's moaning. They sound like Korn. He's moaning like Korn. It DOES sound like Korn. Who is this band? (He is informed. Does this kind of music scare you?) No, why would it scare me? Why would you be scared of music? (Does it sound like anyone else you've heard?) I TOLD you, I said it sounds like Korn. (Anyone else?) Um.. Metallica. (How do they sound like Metallica?) They moan! So does Metallica. Do you like this song? And you don't like Korn? I don't see no difference."
	Bright Eyes - "The Calender Hung Itself" From "Fevers and Mirrors" on Saddle Creek Records. Kirk: "What's this? (It's a band called Bright Eyes.) It's a stupid band name, and a stupid band. This music's dumb. (Why?) Because they're playing it stupid. (Is it boring? Bad?) Yeah! (Why do you dislike it?) Because it's bad! The singer's O.K. He's not as bad as the first band I heard (The guy from Modest Mouse?) Yeah, the guy from Mickey Mouse. (what do you think about this part?) I think he's stupid. Why would someone want to sing about their sunshine? (Does this remind you of anything you've sen on MTV?) Um. Not really. What'd he say? Where I was laid? That reminds me of Ricky Martin. (laughs) I think the music's pretty stupid. The singer's O.K."
	Death Cab For Cutie - "Title Track" From "We Have the Facts and are Voting Yes" on Barsuk Records. Kirk: "(Makes clicking noises) It's a good song so far. La la low la low. (Brother asks what he thinks of the music) I like it! (brother asks what it sounds like) Music! (Is it as good as the Backstreet Boys?) I don't like the Backstreet Boys anymore. (how's this song make you feel?) Tired. (would you say it's a boring song?) No, I'm just tired. I like the music and I like the singer."
	N'SYNC - "Bye Bye Bye" From "No Strings Attached" Kirk: "I don't like this song. This song sucks. (Why?) Because he sings about saying goodbye to a girl. And he's retarded. I don't like this song. This is Brett's [his younger brother] CD anyways. (What do you think about N'SYNC?) I think they're gay homos. This is Brett's CD anyways. (what do you think about people who buy N'SYNC albums?) Um.. little bitches. Like Brett. (Do you like boy bands?) No. (Hip hop?) No. (Dance?) No. (Does it sound like anything else?) All boy bands sound the same. (Who's your favorite member?) Don't got one. (Who do you hate the most?) I don't know his name, the guy with long curly hair. He's a little weiner. (Looking through booklet) He's in here somewhere. There he is. Lookit right there, Justin. Justin's a weiner. (laughs) I hate him the most. (What do you think about Joey Fitone's red hair?) Stupid. Why would someone want red hair? I was born with it, I have to have it. (What do you think about puppets?) I think they're stupid. (laughs) Why? (Because they're puppets in the video, you know?) No, it's just them with string, I saw the making of the video."
	Eiffel 65 - "Blue World" From "Europop". Kirk: (Dancing on the bed throughout) "This is awesome! (Who is it?) Eiffel 65! I think it's cool! (Can you dance to this?) yep! (giggles) (Why do like this song?) I like the music. (why?) It's cool! (What do you think about the little aliens in the video?) They're homos."
