      I don't know if you're into hip hop/rap, but listen to GZA's song "Labels" from the Liquid Swords album. It could explain the nefarious attitudes of the big name record executives.

    Let me just say this. LIT is still alive and well. Just saw them in concert last year. They put on a great show! They work their tails off and produce some excellent music. The biggest tragedy was when Schellenberger their drummer passed away. Ajay's vocals are still incredible, Jeremy's guitar skills are incredible, and Kevin rocks that bass like no other. If any band deserves a chance back to the top, LIT does. Like I said, these guys work so hard and I enjoy everything they put out these days.

      I get it, good vocals, guitars, bass & drums, but it's writing great songs what is the downfall of many bands. You can master your instrument but songwriting is in a different league.

    Damn, you don't hear about bands with a bond like that. To have the drummer live with them, take him to his appointments, and being there when he died. I had good memories of Lit, but now they've got my respect bigtime. I saw them open for Silverchair back in the day and they were great live! The guitarist had a neon pink fuzzy amp, badass!

    Thanks for the history lesson! The summer of 1999 was when I discovered rock music. I damned near lost my mind when I first heard "My Own Worst Enemy" on the radio. The riff, the words, and that relentless kickass energy were unlike anything I'd heard and it changed my life.
    As a performer 25 years later, I can report that that song still makes crowds go bananas!

    Saw the band in April 2021 in Lake Havasu. I actually felt bad for the band. They were playing a private party we were at...playing mid-day on a barge to about 100 middle age people that weren't particularly interested. The band sounded good but looked burned out. That being said...My Own Worst Enemy is an absolute classic that will live on forever.

    So pleased I got to see Lit live in London doing their 25th anniversary tour of A Place In The Sun. Such a special and nostalgic album for me - it’s my go-to Summer album; it’s got such sunny, good vibe feels for me.
    I’ve always followed them since I picked up that album over 20 years ago now, and while I’ve liked a lot of their material ever since, it wasn’t until the album Tastes Like Gold that I truly fell in love with them all over again - Wow! What a return to form.
    I’m always happy to hear new music by Lit. For me, they’re a hidden gem. Although that could be a U.K. thing. I hope they keep churning out absolute bangers - such an underrated band

It is very abrasive, but at the same time, it is irresistibly catchy. It just gets stuck in your head. It is a really simple, but unique riff.

    After their drummer passed away they just never sounded the same to me. People think replacing drummers is no biggie, but it changes everything. Drummers are the foundation that everything is built on. I'm still sad about the news of his passing but glad they guys are still out there rocking, he would want his friends/bandmates to keep trucking on.

    Quick story if anyone is interested. I already knew of Lit as a kid from their mainstream popularity after My Own Worst Emeny". One day at a church sale, I came across a CD called Five Smokin' Tracks from LIT (it was an EP from 1996). Bought it and brought it to my high school freshman music teacher. We were working on making our own music. I chose Fireman by Lit to be my track so my teacher looped the instrumentals for me to add to. Memory that won't leave.

    My own worst enemy is undoubtedly a classic, but I absolutely love the song The Last Time Again from the American Pie 2 soundtrack. Such a great song.

    I’ll never forget seeing them open to Eve 6, if I recall correctly. House of blues on sunset. Must’ve been 1999. Lit came out on stage naked during Eve 6s show.

    I always liked their singles, but I never got into them as a band, ie buying their albums and whatnot, which is a shame because they made some of the best songs of the era that I still love to listen to today. The 90's was absolutely full of great bands and great music and unfortunately I didn't listen to a lot of it as much as I would have liked, but music sucks now so thank goodness that stuff still exists.
