"I can see how you might look beyond the almost non-existent song-writing"

again, this is just so off. How can a person listen to Satan in the Wait, The Lords song, Ocean Song, Guest House, and say there's no songwriting? I love The Reason They Hate Me, but if every song followed the standard verse-chorus-verse-chorus format then this would be bland as fuck

Album Rating: 4.5

^ That's such a great description.



All about the doomy, uneasy atmosphere boys.

"but I think with this return album they wanted *some* form of accessibility for the masses."



saw this record in the Pop/Rock section of my local record store. They have a huge section for metal and hardrock and alternative and put this next to Kate Nash and (the) Sweet

Not that big on Vangas doof. I avoided rating it cause it's a SB pick.

Album Rating: 5.0

Album is great. Dunno what half you nerds are talking about.

'Not that big on Vangas doof. I avoided rating it cause it's a SB pick.'



Huh, I thought it was a good ol' slice of DIY Sonic Youth and Jesus Lizard-y stuff that gets to the guts a bit more than this.



The website is where it gets disturbing, thanks for the link to that.

It's not bad, I just didn't find it to be very memorable.

Album Rating: 4.0

Dunno, I don't find all that much that sounds like that album but then I don't specifically look for noise rock stuff like it.



I know Sandwich loves his SY so if it's good enough for him I trust

Well it must be ideal in sound for him because he rates is higher than most SY albums, including Daydream Nation. I prefer my noise rock to be more chaotic. Stuff like BNNT and Stabscotch.

I'll check them out

Bumped to 4.5. Can't stop listening. This is nearly perfect.

Album Rating: 5.0

that's one huge point in quality for me: listening to it over and over again without getting bored. That's why this 5 is so fucking deserved imo

Album Rating: 4.5

I used to think the middle of the album paled in comparison to the bookends but over time the albums quality kind of smoothed out for me

Album Rating: 3.0

album is pretty consistent, although Guest House is my favorite by a decent margin. that song is unreal

Album Rating: 4.5

Agreed Guest House is on another level. Such an intense fucking song.

Album Rating: 4.0

I think I can finally admit that this is their best album

I’m gathering that this album is worth checking out — right? How about their other stuff?

Just listened to Satan and Guest House — holy fuck, this is right up my alley. I’m a sucker for creepy shit and this fits the bill. Guest House is especially good.
