Affluenza 2: More Punchable Faces

What's wrong with being a bootblack?

His way of holding a pipe makes me want to smoke one.

"Let's make it yella.

Or Mark E Smith, for the love of God. C'mon! The lack of proper Fall coverage here the last couple years has made me doubt your devotion, and I know those are fightin' words, but there it is.

100% on 'Mea Culpa'. That piece defines the record to me even more than 'Jezebel'. The voices are cut up to the point only the emotion, or lack thereof, comes through and it meshes with the melody absolutely precisely. Very smooth and sad.

Or 'Kittypants'.

Along with 'Wingwalker' and 'The Guy Who Invented Fire', Shellac's best work.
