EPISODE 21 - 2

BEST OF THE WORST 2011 - Pt. 2

"If you don't have anything nice to Snobcast, don't Snobcast anything at all."
- Fantastic Africa

"We should do one anyway."

- Bunsen H. Dew

After a consecutive run of a good many incredibly good music years which brought us, among other things, this podcast, 2011 showed up empty handed despite being distinctly asked to bring at least a salad or desert. The sophomore slump is not to be taken lightly, especially these DIY days. STILL! Since when was the Snob Night about ALBUMS?? Don't answer that. Instead - load these DOWN, and turn them UP: The Professor Bunsen H. Dew and Blamblastic Blafriblah proudly present a state of the union in the form of "Snobcast 2011: Best of the Worst" Parts 1 and 2!!!!!

You heard something you like, so why not consult this handy rating system to figure out how deep to dig into the rest of the record? DON'T ANSWER THAT!!! Remember 2011's a Minefield inside of a Leper Colony - but our rating system is like a MONKEY TAIL FOR BALANCE that can ALSO GRIP a tube of LEPER SPRAY TM and GLOWS IN THE DARK!!!
