Re: What's Everyone Listening to?
Of everything GBV I've gotten into to, this seems the squarest in my wheel house. I've been into some of these songs for a long time (I heard "Glad Girls" 10ish years ago and was hooked instantly). Just so many great songs packed in here. The opening 3 are an incredibly strong start.cortez the killer wrote:That one hits hard.Iowan wrote:

Such a perfect power pop record. Current favorite = "Brides Have Hit Glass"Iowan wrote:Of everything GBV I've gotten into to, this seems the squarest in my wheel house.

I don't come around
Never call or let her know
I got a life of my own
You know I hate to be around her
When she's like that
I wrote a song once about her
Called "The Brides Have Hit Glass"
You know it just won't last
To be on top of your own world
With no guardrails to cling to
You fall so very fast
It's very odd to find her up again
Staking out expansion
Seeking new exposure
And when she holds out an empty glass
And she comes for a handout
I ask for the same thing-it's sad
And I hold on so sure I can take all she can
Just to be around her
Just to feel bad
One day I will know
That's it's a waste of time
And there's a better road ahead of me
I just don't know how to make it there
So I'll just hang around and take my chance
Once again I'll roll the dice
And try to hang on to my shrinking paradise
And I'll hold out an empty glass
And I'll come for a handout
And I'll ask for the same thing-it's sad
And I'll hold on so confident
That's it all I can give
To try to find my way back
Just to hit glass
Incredible sadness cloaked in hooks and creamy sweetness.

Re: What's Everyone Listening to?
I came to the conclusion that Isolation Drills feels more accessible. Probably has more to do with Bob's songs than the production though.cortez the killer wrote:Ric Ocasek tryin' to break GBV through to the masses.Iowan wrote:
"Liquid Indian" was my early favorite (of the tracks I wasn't previously acquainted with).

Yeah, I think Iso Drills is far superior to Collapse.Iowan wrote:I came to the conclusion that Isolation Drills feels more accessible. Probably has more to do with Bob's songs than the production though.cortez the killer wrote:Ric Ocasek tryin' to break GBV through to the masses.Iowan wrote:
