From the bowels of my musty old '90s comic book stash come these nostalgic horrors/delights.

"Neat-o!" Enjoy(?) two more glimpses into music advertising's dark and recent past after the jump.

Why does Rusted Root have an umlaut over the 'e'? How's that supposed to be pronounced?

Funny! Punk in Drublic and Heavy Petting Zoo were the only two albums I have ever purchased at Sam Goody. And they were something outrageous like $19.99 a cd. BUNK!
