Side 1 is indeed better but side 2 DOES have "Shit Luck," "Bankrupt on Selling" and "Styrofoam Boots" which are all 4.5+/5 songs

Side 2 is from 'Out of Gas' on...



Yeah, it's far weaker



Four great tunes in Truckers, Bankrupt and the 'double closer' (sort of...has its weaknesses)

Basically everything up until Trailer Trash is perfect (probably MM's best material ever)

Then everything from Out of Gas to Polar Opposites ranges from bad to OK

Bankrupt on Selling is amazing

Closer is pretty solid

Overall a 4.5 mostly because of that AMAZING first half

Actually if we're gonna talk the vinyl release then it's a close-run thing between Side A and Side B for the best, "Baby Blue Sedan" is a beaut

Yes - Side A is "Teeth like God's Shoeshine" through "Baby Blue Sedan," and Side B is "Jesus Christ Was an Only Child" through "Trailer Trash"

Ok so I've been spinning this daily since first checking it out and while it's very, very close to a 5 I still haven't quite had that listen yet. So gonna call it a very strong 4.5 for now but with the understanding that it will almost certainly go up some day.

Because I know you all care very much. ;-P

"Teeth Like God's Shoeshine" has got to be one of the most intense songs in 6/8 that I've ever heard.
