I downloaded the album, and I will be buying it when it comes to a record store near my house.

Most fans of half-decent music are intelligent enough to understand that buying one of their favorite band's album is a good way to show their support / give the band an incentive to put the effort into another project.

I realize that downloading music is illegal (and arguably immoral), but when you're having a bad day and the opportunity to listen to a few new Shellac tracks happens to arise, you'd have to be a real cunt to say no.

If you buy the album / turn others on to the band / attend their shows, what real harm is done?

Aren't you a Republican? Or some kind of Republican posing as an irrational Liberatarian? Just thought I'd bring that up.

no, and no.

I'm gonna find the thread that made me think so...I've got a memory like Faiz's so you best watch out...come clean...while you can...

To those of you who've heard it, would you say that EIG is better or worse than the concept of Cocorosie covering Spiderland in it's entirety?

i have said in the past that i am a registered democrat, though yes i sometimes find myself in-line with some basic principles of libertarianism; but not neil bortzitarian. i'm not sure what this has to do with anything, we both agree bad comrade is a douche.

This little bastard made me spit out my water.

On the off-chance that you're not being facetious, it's much, much better.

like i said before, bad fuckin' sour puss attitude. holy SHIT!

Dear Lars...are you there? It's me, Margaret.

Hmmm...I'm of the opinion that I'm reacting more like a man drinking vodka on a strange day of the week. Seeing as that's the truth and all.

Maybe it's been too long since you were young.

First of all...the thing that most musicians that are making a drive at "success" forget is this: you're forgittin' the yunguns. Who gets to hurl their bullshit at impressionable young minds? Pitchfork. Who creates an actual, visceral reaction to their music? Well...a lot of the bands that are so popular on this board. STNNNG is for the children. Shellac is for the children in practically the same way that Nirvana was for the children...just more mature...it's pretty simple music, ya know?...(despite being saddled with the "math rock" label)...if Steve still secretly dislikes Nirvana like he used to, I think he'd be doing himself a disservice.

When I try and turn kids onto Shellac, I burn them weird Shellac "singles":

"Wingwalker"
"Doris"
"Killers"
"Billiard etc."
"Fuck You, Chris"

Then I throw on the most accessible Terraform songs:

"Copper"
"This Is A Picture"

Then they figure out that they have to find At Action Park.

And...fuck you.

Wu-Tang is for the children.

Do I sense a little bit of insecurity? For such a mature man as yourself...well, when you're wrong, I'd think you'd've learned by now to walk away.

Also, Metallica fucking sucked, Chris.
