I just watched High Fidelity. I’m kind of surprised I’d never seen the film previously considering that it’s 20 years old!

One of my, shall we say, Top 5 movies of all time

https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/513CHqw481L.jpg Good one zip! I remember them, saw them open for Ryan Bingham at the North Star Bar (RIP) in Philly back in the day. Jayhawks vibe. Very strong Jayhawks vibe (to the point where they kinda sorta rip off a couple of Jayhawks songs). St...

The Neverly Boys - Dark Side of Everything

Lana del Rey - Norman Fucking Rockwell

I think Matt is the seventh different lead singer on a DBT song? How many bands can claim that?

Patterson
Cooley
Jason
Shonna
Rob
Adam
Matt
??????

I’m not counting the brief female lead on Cassie’s Brother

This. It’s awesome

Some songs are giving me Peter Rowan/Tony Rice vibes, while others feel more contemporary like Trampled By Turtles. Good stuff

Pre season polls are bad enough, but ranking teams which haven't played in the same poll w/ other teams that have played as many as 4 games? Absurd.

It puts a fine point on how much of an opinion poll this is (and always has been)

So great. The song "Trouble" is one of my go-to's when I'm feeling down.

A lot of Californians must agree with Orange Man. It seems like everybody who can leave is leaving. Who would want stupidly high taxes and politicians who act as if the state is a prison and they are the prison staff? That's entirely missing the point. What would your reaction be if Biden (or any o...

The Neverly Boys - Dark Side of Everything

Trump on Rush does nothing more than rule up the people who were already going to vote for him. It’s not a way to add voters.

The Distance has that SRO guitar riff that hits me every time. Baggage had that SRO feel as well

^^^^Fixed that for ya zip

Groupthink isn't healthy. We shouldn't all like the same songs, and not every DBT song can be in your top 3

I get it, I'm in the minority, but the music (minus lyrics) is bottom 3 Cooley for me

Classic zip

What, having my own opinion, separate from the rest of 3DD? Guilty as charged

I get it, I'm in the minority, but the music (minus lyrics) is bottom 3 Cooley for me

Fuck Trump

Grievance Merchants is top shelf Cooley to me and I guess Sarah’s Flame just doesn’t match it for me. I really didn’t like Perilous Night when it came out, but I find this new mix to be really enjoyable. I remember critiquing it as being excessively political or topical, but it’s subject matter has...

Sarah's Flame isn't grabbing me in the way the other tracks are. Cooley's tracks on The Unraveling were great because they felt like he was playing with new musical ideas, whereas Sarah's Flame feels "old" (which, if it were written years ago, makes sense)

I finished watching Breaking Bad, and have started Better Call Saul.

BCS is fun, but as with any prequel, the stakes are REALLY low (as you already know all the people that survive, so any "life or death" situation is far less dramatic)

The only overtly political songs on the album are Sarah’s Flame and, of course, The Perilous Night. The New OK and Watching the Orange Clouds are certainly socially co copy’s but I would not call them political as both sound deeply personal to these ears. They're not so much overtly political as th...

After a few listens, I really like it! I like it more than The Unraveling for certain. I think this is the first record in forever where all of Patterson’s songs are solid, especially those on the second half like Iowan pointed out. Sea Island Lonely is one of my favorite Patterson songs in a long,...

I really like Matt's vocal on The Unraveling *shrug*

I think it’s cohesive, I just don’t think these songs are (mostly) as good as what made The Unraveling

I'll need to listen to American Band, Unraveling and New OK back-to-back-to-back to start making those comparisons

Jumping straight into a second listen. This is such a great surprise. As per usual, I had never heard many of the songs that they've been playing live (The Unraveling, The Distance, Perilous Night). The recording of the Ramones tune is fantastic. Do we have enough recorded covers to make a proper al...
