So Indie (Starbucks’ New “Indie” Compilation)

Remember in high school when all the androgynous, pretentious, asshole, artsy kids would go to Starbucks after school, smoke their crackly cloves, sip their caramel macchiatos, and talk about philosophy and obscure films? I do..because I was one of them.

Inspired by the legions of angst-ridden teens and pre-teens that flock to their cafes every afternoon, Starbucks is releasing an indie themed compilation titled Have You Heard?.

That means no more avant garde jazz or Nora Jones to go with my frappuccino…and sadness.

Check out the track list after the jump as well as the answer to my awesome joke:
