Josef K were a short-lived four-piece post-punk band. The paranoia and brittleness implicit in their namesake, the protagonist in Frank Kafka’s “The Trial” was echoed by their sound.

I hate Justin Timberlake. He is flat out boastful, arrogant and an ass. His songs are not that good as well. I think the only reason that Justin Timberlake made it through as an artist is the fact that the bosses in the NSYNC’s management group decided that they …
