He is playing them on his programme - alas, it sounds a mess! I don't know why Bob would be interested in this.

that is an interesting phrase, though I am unsure of what you mean by it. Do you mean it is a slump in their career?

If you own a copy, try starting their latest at Track 7 (AKA "Windsurfing Nation") and then wrapping back 'round. I've found it makes BSS’s latest more accessible/penetrable/enjoyable—and a worthy successor to You Forgot It In People.
It's a gorgeous mess (or, if you will, orchestration) of indie rock elements (see also: Do Make Say Think, Godspeed You! Black Emperor, etc.) that takes risks their more polished peers wouldn’t know how to harness in an equally lyric’d setting.

sounded messy/cluttered over the speakers earlier, whereas on headphones the production/feel is wonderfully huggable.

It's pretty horrible.
The last two have been great, though.

Don't you hate it when you buy the Broken Social Scene (2005) album on your lunch break and then some menkaloid at Virgin Smegabore has gone done put a big sticky security protector on the lovely cardboard packaging and it gets all ripped up before you've put the cd on and then when you do put the cd on, the cd is really really boring anyway.

my cd has a crack in it, though. :( if you want we can swap.

Broken Social Scene? The worst? Really? Like, worser than Ashlee Simpson?
Care to go into any backing up (i.e., why's and/or what-for's behind) that statement? Or is it just fun to be contrarian (which, I might add is sooo ILM circa 1991)?

in other words, if they were better i would like their music.
they are the "hippest" flavour-of-the-month cats in the city (eg they were in grunge bands when it was grunge band time, house DJ's when it was house dj time, brazilian groove bands when it was brazilian groove time, etc.).

I looked into KC Accidental and ended up ordering a used compilation from Amazon. The two original CDs are too expensive--one a little, the other ridiculous--and I couldn't find them on Soulseek.
