Dunno, but Dead Man's Pop was good, so it seemed intriguing.

I am enjoying the rollout, I just havent had much to contribute this was my top vote for solo songs (even though i guess it’s technically a joan jett song & paul first choice & they edited someone else out or something idk)https://youtu.be/eUKWMOZFTGs

There’s some kinda PTMM interview/round table with Bob Mehr on Facebook right now.

I don't think I'd heard the Joan Jett thingy before I saw the ballots. I learned quite a bit as the 'other' ballots were coming in. :)

That's a decent amount of points from three votes, re: "DAW".
More songs should punctuate their final chorus with bells.
― Nag! Nag! Nag!, Friday, 9 October 2020 22:24 (three years ago) link
ha, you are right about that! I'm firmly pro-bell (Rocket from the Crypt used the hell outta the bell on Scream Dracula Scream to tremendous success imo)

I like Don't Ask Why a lot, but it sounds a little too close to You Lose, which I slightly prefer for some reason. did they ever combine the 2 into a megasong?

does the PTMM reissue have a remastered version or anything to recommend it for the album songs?
― president of my cat (Karl Malone), Friday, 9 October 2020 22:34 (three years ago) link
You mean apart from the Jimmy Iovine remix of “Can’t Hardly Wait”?

No
In answer to your question, not mine.

Curious as to how much of Let It Be, Tim, and Pleased to Meet Me missed the top 60. The only song I really don’t like from those records is the one that Westerberg didn’t write.
― aphoristical, Friday, 9 October 2020 23:03 (three years ago) link
to me it’s punk rock Buddy Holly and I’m all for it
― terminators of endearment (VegemiteGrrl), Friday, 9 October 2020 23:04 (three years ago) link
“i’ll buy” that is
I quite like "I Buy" myself. I seem to forget it exists though, out the context of the album. Unfairly, I'd say.

god damn job was my #5. the pinnacle of punk mats for me. play a blues song fast and loud. swing it a little. drink a lot. shout out loud some of the most basic complaints of human existence. that song has been a lifelong companion, and not only at times when i did in fact need a god damn job and/or a god damn girl, but it was definitely there for me at those times, of which there have been a few.

In other words, it's almost a LFR version of a Shaggs song.
― She Thinks I Will Dare (James Redd and the Blecchs), Friday, 9 October 2020 23:12 (three years ago) link
lovelines is a terrible idea for what do at band rehearsal when you've run out of other ideas, and they commit themselves to that terrible idea way beyond what anyone should. over the course of thirty plus years it's gotten better with every single listen. i adore it.

(xp) haha. it's a shaggs song played in tune.

This is safe space for DTAS enthusiasts. I for one would appreciate treatises on each DTAS track that places.

I might do that! But I didn’t vote for either of its placements so far. I like sad Replacements.

"Lovelines" is urgent and key 'Mats, for exactly the reasons fcc describes and that's why I prefer the earlier albums to the later ones. Even the throwaways are thrown away in such a deliberate knife-edge balancing act that the those albums are perfectly lethalimperfect.

I just remembered that Jim Dickinson produced some Poi Dog stuff #OneThread

would work as a title for a comp of all the stuff that didn't make the other comps. would work for the other comps, too, come to think of it.

The Poi Dog guys said Dickinson told them he could never get a clean take out of the 'Mats because they were too many sheets to the wind so he had to splice a few takes together #OneThread
