Absolute killer track. And the lyrics work as some kind of lost manifesto that suddenly throw some light and purpose to what have been all their shenanigans. Absolutely love it.
One of your best pieces (Van Morrison Wort to Best Albums) is missing #2 and #1 (plus lost all its comments) which is really a shame and breaks my heart.

By microwaving I meant staring at the cup of coffee with great intensity and warming it up with the microwaves of my mind. Which is different but, let's face it, is probably also my problem number one.
Good Lord, do I get lost on this new Stereogum template. I wanted to microwave a nice cup of coffee and I ended up writing this comment for a Best Coast video. What I really needed was a Best Toast to go with my coffee, so that was a close one.
Good Lord! Stereogum has been Wordpressed! Still early to say anything about it now coz it looks like a work in progress, but a) it's about time; b) I'm worried; and c) good luck for the tremendous work ahead.
I fee 100%l like g zuss. I have the whole discography of Mark Kozelek's musings and Benji has grown to become my favorite album of his. I kinda lost my love for him around Old Ramon (his worst album if you ask me) and it took me a while to fully sink my teeth into Sun Kil Moon. GOTGH and April are obviously masterpieces, but it's definitely Among The Leaves and Benji that touched me the deeper.
Vince Staples' Green Door absolutely killed it this week, but I know it was inaccessible most of the day (but now it's on again: http://youtu.be/62ST_xsaZUI). Hope you'll consider it again next week, coz this is Best Video Of The Year material for sure.
This has nothing of the classic Groundhog Day plot line of nightmarish repetition, since the timeline is continuous: no flashbacks in here. Anyway, great video.
Ah but Pretzel Logic should higher. It's even number 1 for me, but I would settle for #2. But at number 4, I guess you guys will have to speak with my lawyers.
