The fact that it's from an article originally posted on Jan 23rd, 2012 makes it even better

Nice! I agree with pretty much everything you wrote. "I've Had It Up To Here" was co-written by the dude from The Darkness, so that makes sense! It's also my favorite track on the album. "Maybe I should play the lead guitar and Pat should play the drums" is a silly line, but they really do take it to heart on this album. Pat Wilson's drumming and Rivers' ultra-shreddage are definitely the co-MVPs of this album, which real talk might be one of my favorites of 2014.

The collab band would be called The War on Sun Kil Moon, right?

This song (and this album) both remain really, really good.

This song is fast becoming one of my favorites of the year and this performance is awesome.

Is it just me or does the (AWESOME) first track on the DFA1979 album sound like an LCD Soundsystem song with sick distorted guitar riffs added? Is this some kind of reference to their fight over the DFA name or something?? Either way, the album is great. Great week for new music!

The phrase "a few I-guess-this-is-what-pop-music-is-now photos" really made me laugh. ...and think.

I was a freshman in college waiting overnight for hockey season tickets and listening to it lying on my back in a gym at 5am in my discman on zero sleep. SO PERFECT. Those Antics guitar lines still bring me back, especially Take You On A Cruise.

Imma let you finish Sinead O'Connor, but Jamiroquai made the best video of ALL TIME. OF ALL TIME.

I think I saw a Troye Sivan ad pop up during the T-Swift video this week, which might explain how well that EP did this week.

Does that drumline remind anyone else of 'Pain Lies on the Riverside'? Not that that's a bad thing!! Related maybe: this is my favorite El Pintor track to date and I'm pumped for the album.

Anyone else getting a s/t-album-era Beyonce vibe from this? Super good

The only thing that bugs me about the PE/AOTW difference is that the main discussion about Spoon ended last week, but I didn't really get into the album until yesterday since that's the day it was released 'officially' (on Spotify). SO some (delayed) Spoon thoughts: - This album is so great, instantly in the running for my favorite album of the year - It works better as a unit .. I like the singles more in context - Its run time of 37 minutes feels ruthlessly efficient, lightweight, and perfect - Agree with the PE, Eno's drumming is the heartbeat of this record. The beats are deceptively simple and he just crushes it on every song. Harp solos are nice, but a great drum part is the truth.

Yo so real talk, I liked 'Rent I Pay' but DIDN'T LOVE THE OTHER TWO SINGLES THAT MUCH .. until I heard them in the context of the album. Now I love them all. In my opinion this album a) works wayy better as a collection and b) is absolutely awesome

Agree - totally out on this song. But I really dislike GIRLS (the band, not the gender or tv show, both of which I like very much!), so maybe I'm biased. I know I'm in the minority but the "bro singing quietly and out of tune in his bedroom" vibe just does not do it for me.

Amazing comment. Any piece of writing that begins with "I had never even seen a shooting star before." is destined for greatness.

What's everyone's favorite TVotR album? 'Dear Science' far and away for me; I think it's one of the most perfect combinations of pop sensibility and weirdness ever recorded.
