released 2009
ah...the band that kicked off the great tight and shiny debate of '08
but with this album...they seemed to have found their way out of the sweaty stink of the jesus lizard's shadow (though bits and pieces left with them...because when something like that touches you...it touches you) and moved onto seattle circa the late 80's/early 90's
they come off sounding like u-men vocalist john bigley fronting mudhoney...with a hint of nirvana's IN UTERO and some early melvins
and maybe it's not just coincidence that this is their first (correction: second) album for sub pop...perhaps the label is trying recapture their "i'm a loser" aesthetic (the label is a long way from what they used to be...as it seems like they traded in their torn pants/t-shirt fresh from the floor/combat boots look for scarves/high school sports team shirts/clove cigarettes/and tight pants)
so what you need to do is put down that messenger bag...
