I think I'm a bigger fan of their song titles than of their music.

I like this, as far as non-album versions of their songs:

damn that's awesome

is that the one where he toasts martina navratilova, coz if so then yeah it's about 48294x better than the album version

I wish these dudes would eventually do an singles and odd track type collection. That would be rad.

never knew about this:http://www.discogs.com/%E3%82%B7%E3%82%A7%E3%83%A9%E3%83%83%E3%82%AF-%E3%83%A9%E3%82%A4%E3%83%B4%E3%82%A4%E3%83%B3%E6%9D%B1%E4%BA%AC/release/380529
all the singles & splits & comp tracks along with The Futurist and the BBC session, that would be a nice 2LP
― polyamanita (sleeve), Wednesday, 2 July 2014 05:40 (nine years ago) link
This is a really good fan-made comp

a friend of mine who is a big Shellac fan was raving abt this to me & said it was his favorite since AAP, I will have to check this out.
― sleeve, Monday, 6 October 2014 22:55 (nine years ago) link
I think it's fantastic and, yeah, I might agree with the argument of this being the best since Action Park.

my local shop keeps buying, like, three of these at at time, and they keep selling before I can buy one. Grrrr
― Jimmywine Dyspeptic, Friday, 10 October 2014 20:47 (nine years ago) link
1000 hurts is prob still a bit better (in terms of the best since aap discussion) but this is excellent. shellac imo is supposed to be sort of the stiff bracing drink of music and this one really hits the spot.
― call all destroyer, Tuesday, 28 October 2014 02:57 (nine years ago) link
this is really greatthey are so honed in on their weird little brand of off kilter hard rock riffs now it's kinda amazing

I'm one of the weirdos who thinks Terraform is the best album
― you say tomato/i say imago (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Wednesday, 17 December 2014 14:18 (nine years ago) link
as am I but I need to hear this one
― imago, Wednesday, 17 December 2014 14:20 (nine years ago) link
Terraform IS their best album. It took me ten years to realise this.
― nate woolls, Wednesday, 17 December 2014 15:01 (nine years ago) link
lol almost posted this in response to UMS
― some kind of terrible IDM with guitars (sleeve), Wednesday, 17 December 2014 15:14 (nine years ago) link
i could see cases for AAP, TF, 1000hhz, and DI....the only thing certain is that Excellent Italian Greyhound is by far the worst Shellac album
Actually, the best Shellac album is the singles/b-sides/compilation tracks/the Futurists 2LP set that they for some reason won't put out
