I love this album

Thanks to Larry Clark's KIDS for making me discover this artist

Burning Paper is one of his best songs.

A lot of those 90s lo-fi nerds were incredible songwriters.

I really wish there had been a proper final Folk Implosion album. Lou Barlow needs a foil, a partner of equals to work with/against.

Yeah, it's a shame that John Davis left The Folk Implosion. The record label really wanted One Part Lullaby to be a hit since the Natural One single had been pretty successful and when One Part Lullaby flopped John could no longer take the pressure and quit.

Why is YLAOM so much better than every other Dinosaur Jr album?

>>72739721
i think it's a case of them blowing their musical wad so hard that. it's so good that anything else looks subpar in comparison.

that said i think you're underrating Bug because it's excellent too.

>>72739721
You're right that YLAOM blows away everything else they've done but Bug is fantastic and Without a Sound is their only album that isn't good.

John Davis and his new band are actually coming to my hometown. What do?

What's with the weird sexual tension between Lou and J?

>>72739952
Go see them. Tickets will probably be cheap and it'll probably be a lot of fun.

>>72739956
There was a ton of tension between them in the 80s but it wasn't sexual. It was a classic case of personality clash. J was quiet and snide, Lou was talkative and fragile. J couldn't stand Lou's gushiness and Lou couldn't stand J's put-downs.

Good luck, anon. I've never met John Davis but I've met Lou Barlow and gotten autographs from him.

Yeah it is pretty weird how basically all their best songs are on that album. But I guess that happens sometimes. Having said that I really enjoy Where You Been? that's probably my second favorite Dinosaur Jr album.

The stories of those two back in the 80s are unbearable. Having said that, Lou has said that he used to see J at Sebadoh concerts and the two wouldn't say anything to each other. Pretty funny. I suppose even the Beatles listened to each other's solo records...

Anyway my favorite Sebadoh album has to be III that album is pretty close to perfection to me with all those amazing songs from Eric and Lou on there it's kind of ridiculous. Smash Your Head On the Punk Rock is a close second, that album is crunchy lo-fi post punk done at its best. Bakesale has a lot of good songs too, Jason's best probably.
