What about fun? So much of the hatred on here stems from the fact that it's inconceivable that this band is just having fun, when they so clearly are. They're not winking, they're not affecting postures, they're just goofing around and still making solid songs. This is a good album. It's not great, it's not Thirteen,…

Don't listen to them, My! Avoid the first album at all costs! Go straight for Thirteen Tales, branch off left and right from there.

No songs would come from the first album. Several would come from the fourth album.

"I'm Def."

Another messageboard stunk up and down by bad old Pinkie Fisticuffs.

Very occasionally The A.V. Club will get it very wrong, and this is one of those times. This movie is terrific. Genuinely disturbing, horrifying, and strange without resorting to cheap thrills or empty provocation. It is jarring, the revelations aren't telegraphed, it's not too clinical, it doesn't revert to…

Lobsters 1, You can Arbitrarily capitalize my Posts any Day of The week.

Listened to this four times today. It's decent, but off in a way I was having trouble finding the words for. And then there those words were, courtesy of Matt LeMay: "suffocatingly arch."

No.

They gave it a B; they liked it. This is the most accurate review of this album I've read: the songs are short and they do blend together into a whole-album medley, and they are made up of very simple elements. What's alarming is how good this album is when PG does (seems to do) so little. I can't imagine this style…

No need to put "hipster" in there just because you're on a messageboard! It's just a faux hip-hop title, and it's a fun one because it is the furthest thing from the album's sound.

Today's grades: 7.4, 7.5, 7.7, 7.8, 8.4.

A: 10.0 - 8.0

There's never been anyone better to be doomed to obscurity.

Sounds like Roger Dudek took over this review!

All six songs of it, yeah. I just can't get in to that "Sweet Slow Baby." The loop is too jarring and eventually obnoxious to create the hypnotic effect the other six songs (and almost all the rest of his output) do.

Always wondered what a swaddling pillow-fort sounds like.

They're both great—why should anyone set them against one another? The Field knows what he's doing.

"In Love" is fantastic.

"way too many 'filler' tracks" sounds a bit like a B-, Caffro. Especially the "way."
