i think i kinda like two cents best of all - although i get a kick out of listening to all their stuff, it's that one that satisfies most.

need to hear the whysall lane album... kinda agree on pacific ocean though they have a couple of absolute killer songs amongst the generic stuff

I've never knowingly heard either of these bands. Blonde Redhead naming themselves after a DNA song enraged me for reasons I don't honestly understand or take seriously. Only vaguely aware of Versus.

nine years pass...

Versus has their first album in 9 years ready. First couple of songs are great! Here's one of them:

The new EP is great, the best thing they've done in eons. The last album in 2010 was ok but forgettable, this new one could be a real late period surprise.

Hopefully that means Numero reissues those first two Caroline Versus records.

Versus have been playing shows for years now, with a relatively new album, too (2019).

But yeah all their early albums need reissues.

On that note, this incredible early EP did happen to get a recent reissue, highly recommended music:

versus never really hooked me, i know friends were into them but it was always meh.

BR on the other hand have never made a bad record and have a few masterpieces under their belt.

Swap the bands of this post and then it becomes my post. But I don't have anything bad to say about Blonde Redhead I just never got into them (yet).
