Steven Hyden explores nineteen music rivalries and what they say about life in this "highly entertaining" book (Rolling Stone) perfect for every passionate music fan.

Beatles vs. Stones. Biggie vs. Tupac. Kanye vs. Taylor. Who do you choose? And what does that say about you? Actually -- what do these endlessly argued-about pop music rivalries say about us?

Music opinions bring out passionate debate in people, and Steven Hyden knows that firsthand. Each chapter in Your Favorite Band Is Killing Me focuses on a pop music rivalry, from the classic to the very recent, and draws connections to the larger forces surrounding the pairing.

Through Jimi Hendrix vs. Eric Clapton, Hyden explores burning out and fading away, while his take on Miley vs. Sinead gives readers a glimpse into the perennial battle between old and young. Funny and accessible, Hyden's writing combines cultural criticism, personal anecdotes, and music history -- and just may prompt you to give your least favorite band another chance.

Compact snacks you won’t give back!
Flavor Name: Variety, Size: 29 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Super tasty! I actually didn’t realize I could get something like this since most in person stores I’ve never seen these specific combo of flavors together. I personally love the pretzels and getting them in actual lunch snack sizes for work or just to grab for a quick snack on the go is the best thing and makes my day! Perfect size to fulfill a craving and there’s plenty in there even for 2 kids or adults to take to school work or just a tasty on the go snack! Pricing was great for the size and amount of snacks you get and definitely still has that flavorful salty delicious good fish crackers taste while still being fresh and providing that perfect crunch and texture of the regular or jumbo box version.

Perfect Grab-and-Go Snack Variety for Any Day
Flavor Name: Variety, Size: 29 Ounce (Pack of 1)
If snacks had personalities, this box would be the life of the party! The Goldfish Big Smiles Variety Pack is 1 of those rare things that live up to the "variety" promise. You get the classic cheddar (my kid's fav), the colorful ones that somehow make snack time feel more fun, and the pretzels for when you want a little crunch break from all that cheese. The individual packs are perfect for tossing into a purse, lunchbox, and keep some in the car for when the girls get out of school and they are dying for something to eat. Taste-wise - you already know what you're getting: the familiar, slightly salty, slightly cheesy comfort that somehow never gets old. The pretzels add a nice switch-up so it's not repetitive. Only downside? You'll wish the bags were bigger. Every. Time. Overall - it's a solid go-to snack that works for busy days, road trips, or just sitting on the couch pretending you'll only eat 1 pack. Would absolutely buy again (and probably hide a few packs for myself next time).

Perfect variety pack of Goldfish crackers for snacking
Flavor Name: Variety, Size: 29 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Goldfish crackers are a family favorite! This variety pack is perfect with cheddar, colors, and pretzels all in individual snack packs. The 30-count box is great value and lasts a while. Perfect for kids' lunchboxes, snacks on-the-go, or just munching at home. They're always fresh and crunchy with that classic Goldfish taste. Love having the variety so there's something for everyone. These are a pantry staple in our house!

Toddlers love them!
Flavor Name: Variety, Size: 29 Ounce (Pack of 1)
You can’t go wrong with Goldfish! I got them for my youngest grandson and he absolutely loved them! I got to taste the post slobber ones. He takes them out of his mouth and is very adamant that I then eat it. The things you think you’ll never do! Back to the crackers. They’re all delicious!
