90's: indie-rock!/alternanation
RIYL: pixies, superchunk, breeders, guadacanal diary, etc.
never got into these guys(one of too many bands w/same sound). back in the day, they were considered the shit among elitist snobs.
oh well: this is great. play it now!
(note: 1st album in 10 yrs.)
SUGGESTIONS: 1,2,4,5,6,7,9,10 (esp. 7&9or6.)
FCC ClEAN
*1. Rocks!
*2. Still Rocks! breedy&bossanova.
3. (fem vox)kinda reminds me of elastica.
*4. sweet love song. mostly slower than previous tracks.
*5. marching beat=fucking rocks! slows to soft spot=loverly.
*6. ALMOST BEST TRACK: (fem vox) this is very sweet. rockend.
*7. BEST TRACK: (fem vox) very breedy pixie. spacey though. this is a very winsome tune. bleeds into...8. this. the track changes direction fast, so i suggest:
a.) fade out on #7, or, b.) fade out or stop when the forlorn ends.
*9. ALMOST BEST TRACK-it's a tie!- :(fem vox) hey!: give kim her vocal chords back, you bitch! (this is great stuff.)
*10. it's epic, baby! (a great ending.)
