I like these guys a lot. I only have two albums, Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga, and Gimme Fiction. What should I get next?

I'd say Kill the Moonlight, but don't expect it to sound like those two. It's stripped down to the bare essentials but still rockin'.

Cool, I'm gonna revisit these guys today / tomorrow, and maybe I'll get KTM this weekend.

Kill the Moonlight is a good choice. I prefer Girls Can Tell but they're both brilliant. Don't forget the "The Agony of Laffitte" and "Laffite Don't Fail Me Now" split single, maybe the best thing they ever recorded.

:thumbsup: Interested to hear your thoughts. KTM is where I fell head over heels. (Not to bring expectations up too much).

I've been listening to Transference lately and I think it is growing on me.

Fuck yes. Saw these dudes on the last tour and it was the only time in my life I had front row center. Thing is, it totally sucked b/c I was directly in front of the guitar speaker and consequently that's all I could hear for the entire show. :thumbsdown: Scored the setlist though.

this same thing happened to me at one of the National shows and a Decemberists show at the Chicago Theater. I will never sit front row there again.

I'm all about it. Love when a band that's been around a long time puts out a first single that makes me say what the fuck.

Pearl Jam does this for me, but it's usually followed with "Not again!"

Definitely funky. Read they didn't use any acoustic guitars on this album. Should be interesting.

Welp, I never did this :(

I need to revisit my priorities.
