PISSED JEANS

What a life affirming treat these were Live in Leeds last night.

Apart from the hilarity and sheer catharcism, it brought home to me that this band can actually play too - much to their disgust

yeah they banged in London also. Apart from BORING GIRLS I don't recall any specific standouts but it was consistently entertaining. Nothing off Hope For Men iirc? kinda odd

free in W'burg Sat afternoon

The thing they put out on Record Store Day is pretty fun:

jesus lizard are one of those bands i know i am wrong for not loving more but tbh have always prefered most other amrep to them. find the bass too metal funk-ey or something & hasn't aged well

U crazy! Sims = so great

otm, not-so-secret weapon

People who like Pissed Jeans should listen to Watery Love

Cracks me up every time.

Today's melange of flak from a project manager, neighborhood burglaries, and a deer tick bite necessitated shuffling through the Pissed Jeans discography all afternoon.

convinced that a) they are one of the great bands of the current era and b) "goodbye (hair)" is the greatest song title of the current era

I miss Pissed Jeans

mist jeans

perfect timing

i feel like "i'm a man" is the ur-pissed jeans song title

This is such a good Pissed Jeans album.

They're not mere pigfuck revivalists, but at their best they remind me why I love that sound.

Is there already a promo kicking around?

Great album

I was not expecting to marvel at the thoughtful pacing and sequencing in a Pissed Jeans album but here we are

ugh this is so good. "i'm a man" is amazing and made me put a lindsay hunter book on hold at the library.

also Korvette is a legit amazing vocalist

this shit suxxx

This is good!

Korvette really going for it. Some cool production flourishes too.

LOL at the bleep on the first track.

"Love Without Emotion" is the best song Mudhoney never wrote

or a kinder, gentler tad?

also Korvette is a legit amazing vocalist

"Waiting On My Horrible Warning" testament to this. Little but a bass drone & MATT KORVETTE LADIES & GENTLEMEN.

They (Pissed Jeans) are playing the Empty Bottle in Chicago on April 28th which I only mention cuz then band I am in (STNNNG) is playing as well.

We played together at the Bottle in 2008. Which was a long ass time ago.

i just saw that and put it on my calendar and also a reminder to buy tickets tomorrow. great lineup!

this video is good

yesssssssss

what happens to the pastry in his pocket after the coffee is spilled?

"Sixty-Two Thousand Dollars in Debt" on repeat

The single made me a bit fearful, but the LP rules. Everywhere Is Bad is my highlight.

Saw someone raving about this new one , but haven't listened yet

Faster! Kinda Poison Idea sounding, but with their fine sense the torture of the mundane.

They've never had a bad album, but this new one is exceptionally good and might be my favorite since King of Jeans.

some of their fans don't like it because it's more "punk" than "noise rock" but I'm ok with that, I think it's great

i like the new album but nothing really jumps out at me as a particular highlight/something i would add to a "best of pissed jeans" playlist other than "junk time" which is the most noise rock song on the album. but i probably need to listen to it more, a lot of the songs zip by very quickly. i love PJ for having humor in their songs but "everywhere is bad" is maybe 10% too jokey for me, and i don't love the chorus.

anyone know who's doing backup vocals on "seatbelt alarm silencer"?

> "everywhere is bad" is maybe 10% too jokey

It's that way if I think about it too much, but when it just wheezes by it's great. "Junktime" is the best in their familiar way of oozing, but I love that they play a lot differently here overall. Agree that this is their best since King of Jeans.

Yeah "Junktime" is probably my favorite, but also love the breakneck punk ones.

That hanging chord halfway through Junktime is tremendous. Really love the lead work on this album.
