Don't Like You was my first and still my favorite. I guess the band wasn't fond of the finished product, but I love Jon Spencer's fucked up production. This was the loudest, most distorted thing I knew of until I got hip to High Rise and the Dead C. Was also a fan of their blunt misanthropy; they really didn't like you.
I love howForgive Thee sounds as if it was recorded in one long, increasingly drunken and unhinged recording binge. Refried Dreams is my second favorite. Their cover of Lee Hazelwood's "Think I'm Comin' Down" is close to anthemic in a downer kinda way. Yer Last Record is pretty solid, too, though the song about the transsexual sounded a little iffy even in 2002.

I am listening to Refried Dreams, again, wondering why everyone else sucks
