Biiiiiiig At Action Park fan, yet this is the only other Shellac I’ve heard. Could maybe do with a good hard Shellacing.

Just checked Terraformer and it’s a lot more fun than the average suggests, having said that I’m not about to say it actually exceeds it (Sput’s averages are often uber-kind etc, seems low).



Edit: t’was maybe a little premature - I do like parts of it, but the fresh content vs let’s repeat this bit ad nauseam without payoff ratio is a little grating at times. Especially when it only stands at 36 mins!

This and At Action Park are accurately rated the highest imo, but the other stuff is real good too. Title track on Dude Incredible is one of their best songs ever

Shellac should be right down my alley, given my love for lo-fi math rock with an experimental twist (Polvo hits all the right buttons). But somehow, this record just isn't it for me. I feel like it is a bit too much in my face, and tracks the Squirrel Song that at a first listen amazed me and made me laugh soon make me lose interest. To me, Albini is strongest in his role as producer.
