I already kind of liked the album off name alone, but what a ride this provided. Anytime those drums came in, I was sent

I do a horrible job of keeping up with the user albums, but I still check regularly, and as someone that was only really familiar with their final album, the tragic passing of Mimi, and recently saw Alan perform live (opening for GY!BE), I’ve been meaning to check out their earlier stuff and I’m glad you got me to do it!

When I got the opportunity to put up my album, I very nearly chose this one. If I was given the chance again today, I probably would choose this one. I’ve been fortunate enough to see them live twice, I’ve commemorated this album with a tattoo, and I will listen to this almost anytime I have an hour+ drive. Belting out the final lyrics to Basketball Shoes genuinely makes me lightheaded and I assume I will one day die having passed out at the wheel of my car because of it. It will have been worth it.
