While we’re on the subject: why are most of Spoon’s album titles crap?

You said it brother. That the author of the piece above regards being Wire-y as “frustrating” shows where his allegiances lie. Though it also points up the fact that Daniels has an astonishingly wide range. A lot of latecomers to Spoon just don’t get the early stuff.

I’m off to listen to Sneaks for the umpteenth time.

A Series of Sneaks is a brilliant record. On par with Bee Thousand/Alien Lanes as a definitive post-postpunk statement. I can never understand why it’s so underrated. It’s fucking GENIUS

Dear writer of piece: “unabashed bravado” is pleonastic.

Although my assessment is not as harsh as yours, I do agree that Tommy is overrated.

 +1Posted on Feb 14th | re: The Who Albums From Worst To Best (59 comments)

I agree with you – I can’t understand any ranking of Tommy above Quad. Quad is so much deeper and more accomplished.

This is a legit position. Also, “Downvote Abbey” would be just fine.

Everything’s Gone Green?

Good point, and reinforces the fact that it’s the whole situation that’s changed, not just pirating.
