Dear You > ORD > 24 Hour > this > Unfun

dear you is nowhere near the heights of the title track on this js

24 > this > unfun >>>>> dear you
|
| |
dear you over unfun for me
|

hard tie between this and 24
24 has more nostalgia but this is cooler

doesn't matter tho, jawbreaker is my favorite band. I'll never understand the dear you hate, classic record.
i think if you loved those first three jawbreaker records without ever having heard dear you, and you'd invested a whole buncha ideals in this band that sounded so defiantly anti-mainstream, and then all of a sudden they put out this record as polished and poppy as dear you, you might feel a bit like they betrayed what made them so special.
i can imagine that fairly mild reaction, but i can also imagine people who deeply, deeply, deeply identified with and were completely enamoured by the sound of those first three records. and knowing how different dear you sounds, i can imagine that rabid fans of early jawbreaker would have had a very viscerally negative reaction to dear you.
in retrospect, and with the evaporation of all that context, dear you is absolutely a fantastic record. and it being the first jawbreaker record i heard, i listened to all their other stuff in the context of that record. but no matter how you listened to jawbreaker, i think it's obvious that dear you is an insaaaanely different record from the ones that preceded it. and i think if you listened to a band back then and they changed as much as jawbreaker did from 24 to dear you, you'd be shocked.

i don't hate dear you. it actually has a few of their best songs. i just much prefer their earlier sound.
i try to judge albums in a vacuum, but that's hard to do with dear you. it was made to appeal to as many people as possible and make a shitzillion dollars like dookie and smash, but instead (at the time at least) it appealed to basically nobody. it unequivocally destroyed the band.
