@GhaleonQ:disqus , yeah what the hell is up with that?  There was a glut of them back in the 90's and then it started drying up in the early 00's.   Nowadays I can't think of one!

Fuck the Lion King game, is all I have to say.  That goddamn giraffe level still haunts me.  So many colors…so much jumping…

I always found her fairly grating in whatever skit she's in

@avclub-d9773268b3b8a34af17f8cff7aa99c8f:disqus , i think you could stick Vision of Division in right after Hawaii for a pretty good track flow.  But if you're intent on 11 tracks, probably cut it, due to it and Ize being over 4 mins.  Though really you could get rid of Juicebox instead since it was released as a

So no Nightwatchman from Morello?  I guess RATM hasn't put out a new album but they have toured.

Hmm funny, i've heard so many great things about Casablanca's solo effort and now this…Why must you toy with me A.V. Club!

Tracks 1-6 on first impressions are great, especially "You Only Live Once" and "Razorblade". Also, "Red Light" is great.  Lump of crap? Far from it. More like notoriously underrated but also 2 or 3 tracks too long.

@avclub-47f6a2be280bc91e8ae597bdb7dc69fb:disqus , it's good, I agree.  But I find it better suited to an EP over an overly long LP because, to me, it's them experimenting more and overall not a proper fit for the album.  One of my favorites of the Strokes is the I'll Try Anything Once demo from an EP.  Though I still

@avclub-72085404bc24959bbd79392bc8ad27d0:disqus hence the joke…

I like Ize as well, but I think it just fit better on an EP because First Impressions seems over stuffed.

@ShrikeTheAvatar:disqus , yes that is exactly why because before I had no idea they existed.  Therefore, they did not annoy me.

I'll have to go with Revolucion because Donde isn't fully available in the U.S., boo.

@avclub-c9be0674ead9b2448c14d31c64f2b01b:disqus , I would but I am so caught up in the post-funk new reggae slowcore that's going on right now in some basement in Austin.

More like Ben Gay, because of my bad joints.

The Life Sux EP was great too.

I heard some band describe themselves as "post-wave".  I did not listen to them.

they were independent….until they got signed to a label.

any albums to recommend?

Oxford Collapse?  I'll check them out.  Also Wavves seems to be included in this category and they just got reviewed!

Really I always heard more My Bloody Valentine with Yuck over Superchunk.  But I still really like them, even though a lot around here claim not to because they are "ripping off" a sound.  Why do you people want that sound to not be incorporated to new music, don't you like it?!
