I love getting to hear a song like Circus Envy and then something like Wolves Lower. SO much fun.

it's so humdrum

it's maybe the best opening three songs for an REM album—and I realize that's saying a lot. My favorite band too and I was underwhelmed by Reveal and Around the Sun—it was nice to dig an REM album again

MID 90'S SIR

you could be right—he did though I think have a lot of unironic Lizard King in him.

I think you're correct. I know I listen to the Downward Spiral or Pretty Hate Machine a lot more than say Jane's Addiction or Soundgarden. Watching the March of the Pigs video—he was such a ridiculous rock star with his leather pants and his angst but goddamn I love it.

I was listening to a mix of this on Spotify last week because it's not on their as the soundtrack—I had to say the "beep beep" to myself when Shitlist started.
From August to the end of the year—1994 was a golden age. am I romanticizing it because I was 16 then? You bet I am—but man it holds up as a great time for the…

I was the exact same age as Zach when he read IT and i had that tie in copy with Curry on the cover—i loved lugging that fucking thing around with me everywhere i went—i listened to the audiobook this spring and it had lost some of the magic for me. I didn't realize how much i hated richie. but Stephen King was…

Last Exit—such a great opener

Up is so good too! Goddamn that's a good run!

No Code—yes indeed. It so evokes the feeling of moving away to college and then realizing that's not for me right now and having that weird empty shame feeling and listening to this weird pearl jam album.

Hullaballoza! Who you jiving tur-key? You got to sass it.

That's Oddities

I was thinking of Oddville—which didn't start until 97

Oddities!

Trainspotting
No Diggity

Monster is criminally underrated
