Loving the "David's Town" compilation.
― Boehner & der club of GOP (Ówen P.), Sunday, 10 July 2011 16:43 (twelve years ago) link
I just got my copy of David's Town (prices on eBay seem to have dropped pretty quickly) and was mildly disappointed that the packaging didn't go a little farther with the idea. Like I really wanted to be completely convinced that it was an artifact. And an insert would have been nice. Like maybe a fake "join our mailing list" for some non-existant label, etc. So much for that cheap thrill.
At the moment it's reminding me of any number of 90's indie comps that I don't remember anymore (not that there was anything wrong with them). And that's really not putting it down. You can kind of see how the need to contend w/Pink Eyes' voice is what brings out the best of this band, though, and it makes me wonder how future stuff without him might fare...

saw them perform this whole album live, last night @ LPR. having never heard it before that, i bought it on vinyl after the show and... it's not quite as amazing as it was live.

Yup!
1.5 listens through “Dose Your Dreams” and I think it’s pretty great in that they went even more out-there-Fucked-Up. This made me want to hear their next album be like Killing Joke but fronted by Damian.
