Owen Pallett, Saturday, 23 August 2008 06:03 (fifteen years ago) link

Wanted to nominate Jesus Christ a while back, circa #8 and #9, but it felt presumptuous, as though I'd already said too much, and the time wasn't right, anway. Glad I held off. Best fucking god song ever.

No love for "God's Comic" by Elvis Costello?

-3. John Maus - Tenebrae

I'm a believer and I honestly think this is an amazing P&W song. I don't think I'd convince many other people at my church by showing them the John Maus version though.
"Love is Real" is really solid in general as a God album
