Low. I like Spiderland alright, but I think it just hasn't completely clicked with me yet.
I hated Drums and Guns the first couple of times I heard it. I blame it mostly on hard panning and headphones. Chunklet posted the cake eating video and something snapped. Probably listened to that album more than any last year.

I did not react well to Drums and Guns the one time I heard it. You guys...perhaps you will make a believer out of me.

Listen to "Murderer" over and over again.

Low. I don't think it's too hard, even if I like Slint as much as I do. They just don't compare to Low.

I'm gonna say Low here as well...
One good album by Slint and so much of Dave Pajo's post-work...
yawner all around- except maybe the Royal Trux record he plays on.

although Low have probably never made a 'spiderland', they have made a LOT of great records and a LOT of great songs. 'murderer' was probably my favourite song of last year.
that said, they probably don't have a song quite as good as 'good morning captain'.
damn, it's really close but i'm going to have to go with Low.
ps: i'm going to watch the Low documentary
here tonight.

For me, LOW wins just based on one track from the owl remix album.
Over The Ocean (Re-Remix Of Tranquility Bass) - Skull Valley Dub Remix
No shit. Absolutely brilliant track.
Still, I'll have to take Slint.
