[Listening to Zombie Birdhouse for the first time ever
i just heard it for the first time a couple of years back and it blew me away. i'm not sure why it isn't way more praised.
on a different tangent, i posted this a while back on another iggy thread but i still can't get over how good this live version of neu!'s hero, fearuring michael rother is - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hTB0lpDFbkY

The song I posted above is the only one I really like. It's kind of Brick By Brick-ish in its (to my ear) craven present-day alt-rock melodicism, and the lyrics are some of the worst of his career, down there with American Caesar and The Weirdness. I'll probably never listen to it again.
