                    [Summary] => The hard part about being in a boy band is having to constantly grapple with the never-ending tirade from discerning music critics. The issue, of course, is substance. Like burgers, the boy bands have become ridiculed for providing a quick, meaty fix and an enticing sizzle, but hardly any nutritive value.


Blame it on MTV. In a medium where sound takes a backseat to the more overpowering kaleidoscopic assault, the question of substance often turns out to be futile. Who cares if you can’t carry a tune, as long as you look dapper and dandy?
