Epic lightning storm on my drive home tonight. Traffic lights out of power and blinking red to a rhythm. Everything synching up to the spare, bare chords beneath "The End of Radio".

I don't know that it's the most talked about album in Albini's engineering discography, but I've been listening to Lifestyle by Silkworm for the last few days. It's so good.

I hate the Pavement comparisons to skwm. I get it, but, ugh, no. Have you checked out the Crust Brothers disc. It's them playing a bunch of covers with Steve M and it's pretty damn great.

Lifestyle is an easy top 5 record of all time for me.

A more talented, significant Pavement. I hate that slacker gen x bullshit that band just oozes. But note, I'm a heavy Pavement detractor. They've never done for me.

I did catch one of those Central Park reunion shows in '10 and really enjoyed it. Groudned was my fav that night.

For me, I think Pavement was one of those bands you had be into in the moment. I missed that moment and it never gelled.

Same thing for me with a bunch of those Merge bands.
