ahhhh you did a great job! Barry seems like such a sweet, smart fellow.

god I would love to hear the Joyce Manor discards/alternates vault (all like 30 minutes of it or whatever). iirc they recorded a long Smiths medley for Of All Things I Will Soon Grow Tired but I can't back that up at the moment

i saw these dudes the other night ... hard to imagine a tighter rock band/show.

also, barry has to be the smile-iest frontman going, right?

Was anyone else there tonight in Islington? A real shame to see they have done 20+ songs and 2 encores everywhere else and tonight they complained Barry has had voice issues and it was just about an hour long. (Were dope for the hour tho)

it's wild that these guys have written like 30+ perfect songs

First half of this comp, the early lofi stuff, is kinda revelatory (think a peppier Freed Weed-era Sebadoh):

only joyce manor could get me slightly stoked for a 15-minute rarities comp with a few songs I already know

haha, finally felt compelled to check this band out, ^that was not at all what I expected to hear first. a nice shock though, and if you're gonna cover a perfect song might as well put it up front.

i did a discog run this week and i definitely overrated million dollars to kill me when it came out but it's a way better record than their fans think and "big lie" is still the best song ever

cody is totally their best though. perfect, cohesive, breaks my heart

cody
tie between never hungover again and the s/t
tie between million dollars to kill me and 40 oz to fresno
of all things i will soon grow tired (hate to be someone who thinks of this particularly weird charming little record (in a catalog of weird charming little records) as their worst but something has to be)

Cody is my favorite too.
