here's a record i nearly never listened to bc the band name and album title are hideous
Pitchfork gave it an 8.2 today! I agree that the band name and title are wretched. Really like the tracks they're streaming on the site though.

show last night was fun but pretty bro-y: some asshole during lemuria yelled 'show us your tits'--a generous bystander escorted him to the bar for a drink, then shoved him out the door where he was barred. which was pretty satisfying.
i should stop being surprised at the number of frat dudes at these kinds of shows i guess? like this stuff has always coded to me as a countercultural cause it was me and the skate rats listening to D4 and whatever back in the day, but times change i guess

But The Hotelier and Joyce Manor are both *awesome* ... or at least their 2014 records are.
Joyce Manor's s/t debut is a bit of a modern classic imo, their 2nd one is good too but it's absurdly skimpy even by their standards

I completely get why people don't like them, and On the Impossible Past did nothing for me at all, but I have been listening to the Menzingers' Rented World an awful lot lately. There's something satisfying about how basic and stubbornly unclever the lyrics are, especially in conjunction with the music, which is very polished and streamlined but still convincingly gloomy. Just the right amount of melodrama. Maybe it's just a symptom of the constant blah downer feeling that being back in school after a prolonged absence brings out.
