"Also if we're talking bonus tracks Flower is a masterpiece"

Total Trash is like riding a rollercoaster in slow motion
like, it's cool and all bc it's a rollercoaster, but no-one wants to take that trip below midtempo

Total Trash in the relative lowest tier is giving me a stress ulcer, thanks Johnny! It may be a slow roller coaster, but it's like riding that slow roller coaster on mescaline

Candle is such a vibe. One of my favorites. Ranking this album as a whole is pretty tough, so I'll just say this:

Best Kim song: 'Cross the Breeze

Best Thurston song: Candle

Best Lee song: Hey Joni

Also what the hell Johnny, Eric’s Trip AND Total Trash in the bottom tier? Sometimes it’s like you’re actively trying to provoke me.

I mean, as bottom tiers go it's a goodun! Total Trash is the laziest song here and way overstays its welcome after the first few spins, but I always felt I was missing out on something with Eric's Trip. can fw that being a little higher

They ain't as noisy as what came later



They done make their guitars do weird things, but outside of the first 2 (and maybe Evol) they ain't particularly inhospitable
