Really? It seemed rather run of the mill to me.

Yeah, outside of his voice, which sounds like an effeminate take on Danzig or something, I didn't notice anything even remotely weird about it.

I don't know. There just seems to be a strange feeling behind the music. It's probably all in my head. I still haven't listened to it without doing hot knives and bong hits first.

I really like this album. I must be getting more P4K friendly in my old age, between this and the XX

If you want POPPY stuff, you MUST MUST MUST get King Tuff - Was Dead. Production, hooks, songs, the glammy nasal vocals. It's all there.

Absolutely agreed!

But will any of our Pitchfork-kneepads-wearers listen to King Tuff?

I guess just being a really, really awesome band in Vermont that is not playing whiteboy reggae is not as interesting a story as a band's lead-singer growing up in a cult, such as with this Girls band.

Of course, the other thing is that the tiny Colonel Records label that put out the King Tuff vinyl and the small-change Burger Records label that put out the cassette version has no money for the "pay-to-play" game which ultimately decides whether Pitchfork gives you special attention.

If you knew how dirty Pitchfork is with the pay-to-play scheme, then you might get disgusted and finally stop using them as a roadmap for building a record collection that you will wanna bulldoze by your mid-30s, if not by next year when you realize how little staying power this fluff actually has.

Sadly, even a respected news figure gets dragged into this morass...

You're totally right, brosef. I do need a collection that has staying power. Not a collection that I, you know, enjoy or anything.

That's not exactly what he means.
