Perfect Disguise
That Pitchfork reviewer does seem to share a lot of the same sentiments I had about the album. But he also brought up some noteworthy points of his own. I agreed with his interpretation about the album’s two namesake environments, the moon and Antarctica: They’re the only vestiges of human space left without a Nike or Bud Light advertisement.
I can’t believe they’re re-releasing the Reggie album though. Gabe’s right, it is their best and most known, but to re-release it just seems so cheep. I’m sure the extra tracks will be cool, but it begs the question, ‘couldn’t the band have simply put the 7 tracks on an EP?’
In other crazy news, check out this MSNBC contributor’s write up of the ten best bands of all time.
You really can’t argue with the list if you consider historical significance as the prime contributor, but I’m sure every one would have their own interpretation.
All the same, here’s my current list…
Pixies - Braid - Hum - Radiohead - Smashing Pumpkins - Nirvana - Beatles - The Casket Lottery - Weezer - Modest Mouse
