Welcome back, our most excellent friends! If you're like us, you're desperate for words of wisdom and comfort in these trying times. Now seems like the perfect time to dive into Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure! These two may not be the sharpest knives in the drawer, but their dedication to being excellent to each other and partying on is something we can all aspire to right now.
As for the soundtrack, well, if you ever wondered why grunge killed off hair metal so quickly, you need look no further than this album. It's wall to wall hair metal bands in a stiff competition to see who could sound the most like Van Halen. We've got Extreme, Shark Island, Astral Crown, Tora Tora, Tower Pool, and more! (Can you pick out the names I just made up?)
So put on your wraparound shades, have a pudding cup, and let's get rocking!
