Wasn't Matt Sharpe's big claim to fame that he shagged Miki from Lush? I always thought she had really bad taste for doing that.

Gareth: It also helps if you know all the words and can't sing.

all that said, it is a mid-90s alt-pop album, not something hugely groundbreaking and innovative -- ll cool j good not public enemy good. if you don't like "buddy holly" you probably shouldn't bother with the rest of the album.
now if only i can get josh to concede cinderella;)

And don't be so harsh on the Rentals- Matt's not Rivers, but, nobody but Rivers is Rivers. ;Þ (Say that 5 times fast!!)
Maybe one day Rivers will become happy. That would be wonderful for him, but, then who would the rest of us sad geeks have to identify with?

This thread had the potential to be the original DMB thread, but it (luckily?) didn't pan out. to be dormant for 3 1/2 years is impressive.

I bet they're gonna name the next album "Bigger Than Jesus" then!

i though the early demos on that second disc (kitchen tapes???) were really great. they actually kinda sounded lo-fi like the drag city pavement, while also making me wonder if they really did like the feelies (my favorite was 'paperface' or 'somethingface' which has screeeming - see they ARE emo)

also Malkmus is FAR and away the better, more inventive guitarist. really knows his weirdo english folk records, bizarre tunings, phrasing, etc.

I never got that impression from a Pavement album.

b-b-but Rivers Cuomo is so into getting laid (specifically by little Japanese girls) its fucking creepy! seriously.
yeah thats pent up frustration from years of NOT BEING FAMOUS
also Malkmus is FAR and away the better, more inventive guitarist. really knows his weirdo english folk records, bizarre tunings, phrasing, etc
WEEZER ALSO USE WEIRD TUNING AND RIVERS IS BETTER AT METAL AND 70S ROCK SOLOS THAN MALK.

makes me want to wear my old weezer t-shirts and make that "W" sign with my hands that everybody makes at their shows.
i really like a lot of the kind of hard to find pinkerton demos and stuff between pinkerton and the green album. 'Keep Your Distance', 'Longtime Sunshine', 'Walt Disney' in particular.
