I got (fake?) blood poured all over me at an anthrax/high on fire show years ago and that alone sent me into a rage. I cant imagine a frontman pulling his dick out or doing any GG Allin type of shit.

Yeah just to be clear I’m not dissing Jesus lizard, I just feel like the knee jerk reaction throughout this thread has been “errrr daughters is not good, you should listen to Jesus lizard instead” and just saying I personally prefer this over anything JL has done

Just relistened to a random track from Social Grace and yeah those vocals are still definitely not for me. I don’t hate em but they’re undoubtedly corny. Not sure why I said they lacked melody. Perhaps brain slightly less smooth now. idk

Jesus Lizard rules but I'd put this on the same level as LIAR and GOAT, tbh, and the self-titled album from 2010 is right there with the lot of 'em. The Lizard influence on Daughters is unmistakable, especially as far as Alexis is concerned. But the records are still very different and absolutely not supplemental to one another. You can prefer any JL album over this, obviously but to imply that it would fill the same sized void or scratch a similar itch a bit of a stretch imo.

JLiz comparisons for me have always been much less about any two records sounding similar and much more about the Yow/Robinson-inspired vocal manglings here, which have always hit me as a pale echo. Alexis' solo album was a much better effort for that side of his approach - this one very much warrants the don't tell me how to do my job protesteth 2 hards

Ahhh idk. I moderately enjoyed his solo album, but it definitely felt like “hey I found this vocal and lyrical style that resonated really well with Daughters fans so I’m going to do more of the same but crank it up to borderline parody levels on a solo release.”
Best illustrated by the opening line of They Can Lie There Forever probably. This felt natural to me, whereas House of Lull leaned a little more towards cashing-in on the hype

Was his best Scott Walker impression that album

This album is someone if the worst shit I've ever heard in my life my entire life. People actually listen to this crap?
|

bet
"borderline parody levels"
would much rather performative overkill than the self-serious spook flop on this one hmm

the problem to me is that he's still very self-serious on his solo album. the "parody" part is lost on him entirely. but again...still really enjoy the album for the most part

"This album is someone if the worst shit I've ever heard in my life my entire life."
I remember back when I too had only listened to 6 albums total

Ive always said that this album excels at doing one thing and thats making the listener uncomfortable. Its a downright creepy record to me and thats before the vile shit with the actual members.

First one to the clock The Jesus Lizard comparisons back on page 9.
"Like if you're that one user who said he can't listen to Courtney Barnett because she is lesbian and that diminishes his sexual attraction to her... now that's sexist"
Mischaracterization. I brought her album down .5 after learning of her sexual orientation.
