Listening to Life and Limb while thinking about VG's comment earlier in this thread about them being a "more focused more aggressive Sonic Youth" and it's spot on. I liked 13 Songs enough, but never got into them beyond that. The direction they go beyond that debut is much different than what I expected. The guitar interplay is key. The atmosphere is dynamic. All this time I thought angry vocals, fast tempos, and a heap of integrity were all this band was about.

Interesting album. Its the one i come back the least, maybe its because their last one? Ive been listening a lot to different Joe Lally projects, and i guess this one features a lot of the stuff i really like about his playing but its still behind my fav from them, End Hits.

i was an end hits maxi until a couple months ago when i think i finally found my stride with The Argument
End Hits is slower, actually, sleepier, more psychedelic
The Argument is deliberate, hard, with purpose, crisp, tight, mature, well-recorded (although I think End Hits is as well)
right now The Argument is in my #1 spot
never thought I would say it
but it is
I have a date with the Smithsonian to rescue a copy of the Folk Life festival show sometime
there they debuted Ex-Spectator, but instrumental only. has not been released on the live album series yet, last i checked, but was recorded. it is still seared into my memory. album had not come out yet. when the buildup exploded we were in a circus tent on the national mall with a tempest outside
i can feel it
down in my plums
