As part of the avclub.com‘s ongoing HateSong feature Skeletonwitch bassist Evan Linger expressed his distaste for the Barenaked Ladies‘ 1998 hit, “One Week“. Speaking on why he hates the song, he offered:
“It’s the weird rap, and it’s some of the particular lyrics to the rap. Like I said before, it’s a college-rock song until the rap starts and I don’t like college rock. Plus, it’s Barenaked Ladies, and they’re the total package. They did the theme for that Big Bang Theory show and that show is terrible. Every other song they have is terrible. Have you ever seen the video?”
The full feature in question can be read at this location. The article even reached the Bareknaked Ladies themselves, who tweeted the following response:
I don’t think Evan would like this restaurant. #hateisthenewlunch #positiveliving @Skeletonwitch pic.twitter.com/SCjfvGJ7Zi
