I really enjoy the free jazz direction the band has taken.

Definitely Shellac's best LP.

I'm kind of amazed at how perfect it is.

kittypants comes off as a very deliberate homage to dianogah...and, of course, to kittypants.

Bob's bass sounds a lot like a piano on that one.

Fuck it, Christmas came early.

If you only buy one Shellac album legally, make it this one. Incredible.

It's a very good album, but less "abrasive" than the other albums....I know what I mean.

Still NOT CRAP though.

I haven't enjoyed any of the Shellac releases prior to this one since the song 'Doris' (single b-side?).

I'm really surprised that fans of Shellac aren't disappointed by it since (for me) it sounds far more...I don't want to say accessible since that's never been my criticism...more 'pop' I guess. More straight-ahead. More Southern Rock.

In fact, more like Rapeman.

I like it.

NOT CRAP.
