The jukebox only has one song!

With oversized glasses

"Coroner"?

Gender/sexuality humor.

Yes. Close To The Edge.

Still isn't funny, though. Only problem I see.

It's not that. It's just that it's comedy that isn't funny. Kinda the whole shebang right there.

Can I say, "who gives a fuck about this woman?"

Awesome!

Orange is the New (Back In) Black

Bulbous also tapered

I think it's a go-to litmus test for lazy critics. I agree that Beef has better albums but Trout has some goddamned arresting moments.
That said, the last record I put on was Shiny Beast and before that was Mirror Man.
It wouldn't top my list either…

Apes, Ma?

Goddamn yes

"Man With The Woman Head"

Anyone else find it odd that the piece is trying to sell people on TMR but doesn't mention "Moonlight…", easily the most accessible entry way into a sometimes impenetrable album?

Fuck YES! Quite likely my favorite thing they ever did (any incarnation.) When it breaks into that coda (after "be reborn"…) with the bass doing octaves and French just Krautrocking the double-time, it's musical nirvana. One of the few truly transformative pieces of music in my life.

Yes. And Korine.

Harmony Korine lives in my neighborhood?

People love disasters.
