I've been on the Sophtware Slump trip for the past year but I've still yet to hear any other Grandaddy besides "Bison on the Plains"
My radio show was yesterday and sometimes after each show, I'll like to spin the full parent album of each song I played - yesterday I played "Maria's Little Elbows" and "The Crystal Lake"

I enjoyed Under the Western Freeway a decent amount and I love Sparklehorse so I really should get on this one.

I didn't love Freeway (light 3.5) but I guess that's promising enough to hear

I prefer this over any of Sparklehorse's big 3 tbh

Sumday, Fambly Cat, the eps, I dig 'em all.
Remember to listen Dark Night Of The Soul. Afaik the only collab between Linkous and Lytle.

I prefer all of the Sparklehorse big 3 ahead of this
Grandaddy, I do love 'em, but there is the whiff of novelty about their music all the same - Linkous avoided that totally

Hmmm, I definitely get some novelty from Sparklehorse's lighter-hearted/sillier tracks but I think it contrasts well with Linkous's darker material (e.g. "Dog Door" sandwiched between "Eyepennies" and "More Yellow Birds"). The novelty on this album succeeds for similar reasons imo, especially on "Broken Household Appliance National Forest" which I view as novelty with a serious message behind it

This is a charmer with real depth. It’s a classic for me, always has been.

I mean the whole Grandaddy thing with the 'cheap tech' sound (keyboards, effects, etc) and the lyrical concerns often being quite themed with a similar 'nature vs tech' - I like it, it's fun, but I don't find them as 'proper band' or 'soulful' as a genuinely troubled artistic spirit like Linkous.
I dunno, Sparklehorse are miles ahead for me but I can understand anyone not agreeing.

I have a vision of Jason sat on the West Coast of America tinkling away on his Casio, a lost soul, detached, disassociated and disenfranchised toiling away on the problems faced by his troubled mind while looking at the sun sinking into the Pacific.
It’s basically every yank indie film premise since 1995.

"The Crystal Lake" is one of those permanent earworms, should've been a huge hit
