One of my favourite albums from one of my favourite bands of all time. I will never get tired of this album, especially with all of the lore(comics, music videos)

One of the least talked-about GOAT double albums ever.
I think I caught the band live for the first time on the “Sister” tour that preceded it - I’d never seen or heard anyone abuse guitars in such a creative and unusual way before that (or since).
Not a dud track on it.
A mind-blowing, life-altering, perspective-forming monster of a release. I was and have remained a fan ever since (and Kim Gordon is a goddess, I’ll go down with that particular ship forever).
When someone says “best NYC art rock” this is automatically my go-to reaction. Like a gallery showing for a new artist you can’t wait to tell your friends about. 🖤
P.S.: Yes it sucks that they're gone and I blame Thurston, of course.

WHAT A GOOD DAY TO BE ALIVE
New album coming out in September, Blurryface is 10 AND Clancy is 1! I'm so so excited for the new album and good lord am I excited for the lore. Speaking of the lore, my friends are so sick of me rambling incoherantly they've said I can present on it at our next slideshow night. Safe to say there is a document OPEN and being worked on relentlessly. Revisiting all the lore from Vessel (yes I think it starts there) all the way to Clancy is so exciting and so nostalgic. I first started listening in 2015 when Blurryface came out and learnt all the lore during the Trench era and revisiting it is so crazy. Realising I've gained all this knowledge from albums and music videos is crazy work because good god I am discusting educated on this nonsense. If anyone would like a link to the document where I'm going through the lore in chronological order, split into the songs I think are lore accurate, just ask! I'm happy to send you the link.

Playing Cycledelic by Johnny Moped today. This album was chaos, charm, and genius all rolled into one. And for me, it’s more than just a punk classic – it’s a reminder of where it all started.
Back in the days of sticky floors, cheap strings, and big dreams, I was in a band called Travis Cut – loud, fast, and barely held together. The kind of band that lived for the next gig and maybe the next pint. That whole era, and the beautiful mess of it all, is what inspired my book Three and a Half Minutes of Fame.
The book isn’t just about music – it’s about the scene, the spirit, and the people who somehow survived it. If you ever pogoed in a basement, argued over setlists in the van, or found meaning in a 7-inch single, this one’s for you.
Punk’s not dead. It just writes books now - thanks to the brilliant team at Earth Island
