Camper Van Beethoven
Wasting All Your Time
Album: Camper Van Beethoven Is Dead. Long Live Camper Van Beethoven
Genres: Alternative
‘80s indie jokers get silly in the studio, then release the recording ten years after they’ve broken up. Do they pull it off or are they just wanking off?

	No matter how great a band is, it always has some recordings better left in the vaults. Camper Van Beethoven is no exception, as this lame bit of ephemera demonstrates. There’s a mite of a song buried in the off-kilter reggae beat and guitar riff, but good luck finding it. The chorus, “We’re all wasted and we’re wasting all your time,” proves a brutally honest assessment of this unfunny in-joke. Unless you’re a Camper Van completist, don’t bother.

A great song to have in the background around 4 in the morning when "We're all wasted and we're wasting your time" but other than that situation, this song probably isn't going to be that entertaining.
