Replace "For Dinner" with "Glenn" from their Untitled EP, which was recorded in 1990. Does it make a jump in quality? Personally, Glenn is one of my favorite Slint tracks and is better than For Dinner, but this isn't a simple case of "you can't just replace a song like For Dinner on that album and have it be the same". I really think they'd accomplish the same thing, though. They're both instrument and ominous and lead perfectly into Good Morning Captain. Glenn just seems to have more going for it with the reverb and a better riff, and the track feels more complete(though I don't think For Dinner is filler like a lot of people). People might not give a shit, but I think that switch could turn Spiderland into a near perfect album(which it basically already is). Thoughts?

I still think for dinner is cool in the whole album context.

The only case for For Dinner that I like is that it's a bit more of a "calm before the storm"(literally) than Glenn would be, since Glenn breaks out while For Dinner remains pretty reserved throughout.

They don't accomplish the same thing at all in my opinion. For Dinner is sedated and minimalist.. Glenn would be the loudest/heaviest song on Spiderland by far. It's just a completely different vibe and yes I think it would completely change the album.
Good Morning Captain would be a let down coming out of Glenn also.
