Freak Scene is pop perfection. There. Stop the album there and then, five fucking stars. The production throughout Bug is far better than any mainstream shit, past and present. Each instrument is allowed to argue its case, without battling one another. The guitar chops and digs away. J Mascis' vocals are tender, yet still crash down on you with a tirade. The fucked up attitude is the appeal. There's actually some real clever melodies here. Adorable.

I quite enjoyed this when it started, a bit of happy grunge to sign off the work day. But it did become monotonous by about halfway through. Freak Scene is a great tune, and there were one or two others scattered in there but the rest all became a bit of an audio blur.
