I love that song, and that band, but good lord there are a couple stinkers on Summerteeth.

I love this song, but it's because I love krautrock, which is clearly what this is inspired by.

Really?

I do think the record is a far cry from the live performances.

What turns you off about that blistering rocker?

It's something I've never been able to put my finger on. It rankles me.
Literally the only Fugazi song I NEVER like.

Yeah, but is it worse than "A Man Needs a Maid"?

I love me some Son Volt. With each new album, however, comes the same excitement/listening/disappointment pattern. With that, Sultana sounds like Jay is reading verbatim from the Wiki page.

(clip of Rush's "Tai Shan")
I doubt that could be much farther away from what I like about Rush. Good... I mean very appropriate... choice.
I have a good friend who clearly prefers 80s/early 90s Rush to 70s Rush - which completely boggles my mind. The consensus amongst peers for the past 30+ years has been that 70s Rush is orders of magnitude better than 80s Rush, and the peak of their output was between Caress of Steel and perhaps Moving Pictures.

To know someone who considers Rush's best efforts to include Signals and Power Windows, up to Roll the Bones, has gotten me to rethink my notions of "inconceivable".
