I wrote about it back in January. It's a good record.

Good read! Got off on the wrong foot because I wont take “gish” slander because it’s my favorite SP album - but there’s so many quotes and context around the band I don’t think I was even aware of. Ok, I’ll listen to it!

probably the most interesting thing he has in the vault so hopefully this won't take forever to release

great article unperson!

it's pretty funny he tries to portray the others are unreasonable (though pajo was probably a train wreck) when sweeney has collaborate with a million quirky personalities and people seem to like him.

this really rules as close as billy got to marquee moon

Good piece, unperson! I was really into this album when it came out... I would listen to it while I played Super Mario Sunshine (in fact, I can still see Mario jumping to the tune of "Lyric" in my head). I also saw the band play at a club (Spaceland), which was pretty awesome.

But I’m glad to see that people have reappraised some of the music, because it is strong. In many ways, it’s like the great lost Pumpkins record. The quick backstory on it was when things started to go south in the band when we were making the record, Jimmy and I just took the record over and basically turned it into a Pumpkins record, because I felt the shadow of the record company over me.

Sure man, you "took it over"... what an asshole!
