Have you guys heard of Slint?

Other than Pearl Jam, who else is there?

How much like "Pendulum" is it?

It's like "Pendulum" if "Pendulum" sounded nothing like "Pendulum", and was also good.

That does sound good, admittedly.

Spiderland wipes the floor with pretty much* all post-2002 Pearl Jam.

*I say "pretty much" because I quite like "Parachutes" and "Cold Confession," more than anything else in the post-'02 set, and because I have a harder time making faux-objective statements comparing multiple pieces of music I enjoy, than I do comparing music that I enjoy to music that I don't so much.

I think Spiderland is still in print from T&G. But I doubt the bonus stuff will be available sans box.

Fantastic. I thought you couldn't already improve on it, but the remaster sounds really great. I'm even getting a lot of milage out of the bonus demo materials, it's fascinating stuff. I'm all set to see them on Monday too, can't wait.

Dude, you should really try and catch the documentary.

I'm hopeful that it will screen here.

I have been able to acquire an electronic copy of the documentary but am unable to find a copy of the remastered album anywhere by fair means or foul.

You'd think they'd sell the remastered album digitally too?
