I like Spin enough, it was kinda cool at the time to have a very fast punk number. Sounds very hardcore yesssss


Not 4 You is fucking awesome...that bridge my god...Neil Young meets Fugazi again. Dave A, wonderful moments here...and its all Stone and Mike.

Tremor Christ, i love it...that chugga chugga chugga from Stone and that very quiet bass is wonderful. Dave A doing some very interest things here...Dave A is way more direct and heavy on this album not so funky at all...love that and i didnt quite remembered that.

Whipping...i wasnt a fan when it came out. It grew on me, specially the guitars...there are hints of PJ circa Ten because there is some groove here, but its all still filtered through the Fugazi sound i guess.

Dave A. is great again.

this lyric is making me giggle in isolation because it has the simplicity of The Fixer, just more violent imagery

I love that it's pulled tight like a rubber band, everyone in sync, just like Dave A would have it; it's not loose enough to call punk

I like the china smash on every "nnnng-AH!" on the outro; the performance choices lift it way out of the type of thing I wouldn't usually care for

Its not a punk song like Spin..., but its fast and hard enough for sure. I keep calling it a Fugazi sound because it really reminds me of that band, even if Fugazi dont have a song like this

All the expermients like To Pry or Aya Davanita, sound cool, at the time i guess PJ did them to actually try to be a little less ...mainstream? Bugs is the one i always hoped they did with some guitars..it actually could be fun.

Ed sounds wonderful.

Satan beds....mmm as a kid everyone kinda loved this one and i never really got it....with time i understand its appeal but its still a three stars for me. The production is very good though, and i guess they tried to come back to this sort of songs with more or less success.

I do like the bridge very stones, very blues...i do believe Jackie I is a better fit for this one, maybe thats why i like this one on those tours

he really does

another reason I love this song so much is that I love the way Matt plays it; in a total reversal of the usual, Matt brings a groove and some accents to it that Dave didn't (he chose to play it straight, simple, even punky)

Yeah totally, the 1998 tour is amazing in that sense. I really liked the garage type of sound Jackie I gave it too.
