that's correct

Still waiting for To All Trains to arrive. Apparently everybody and his dog suddenly wants to buy their first Shellac record.

my dog got two

Your dog's a hoarder.

I guess if a drum mix is panned wrong there's always the option of listening to it while facing in the other direction.

Just reach behind the stereo and reverse the speaker cables.

I'm sure there is plenty of discussion on this topic somewhere but the sadly portentous lyrical content of Scabby and I Don't Fear Hell continues to irk me.

One major change: I’d put To All Trains next to Terraform. Otherwise I’d rank the albums this way.

Best side of Shellac music: side 2 of Terraform.

EIG
Trains
Terraform
Dude
1000 Hurts
Action Park

I ran out of my free listens for To All Trains on Bandcamp, so I'm actually working through the whole catalog on my after-work bike rides. It's going to be pretty hard to rank these, especially since I always bagged on Terraform but recently realized that I was a deeply flawed individual when I originally assessed it.

Terraform is the best-sounding, hands down. And it has Mouthpiece.
