One of my favorite 2010s songs is a non-Pollard from the double LPhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oQzw0kn-GfU

Pollard would write a lyric with the phrase "humble kidney pie."

re: tiny music, i routinely forget how good "adhesive" is too. it sounds like a psych emo song with a trumpet solo

best album track on purple is "unglued" imo
― american bradass (BradNelson), Saturday, 4 January 2020 05:14 (four years ago) link
which my best friend and I loved when it first aired cos "masturbation" is the third word

I loved "Lounge Fly", but only cos I recognized the part of the song that was used on MTV

"Adhesive" is rad

young me had a hard time adjusting to Tiny Music's expansion into other genres and wearing more of their 70s influences on their sleeves
adult me is all about that shit. like I hated "And So I Know" with a passion then, but right now this shit makes me wanna get in a goddamn jacuzzi with a mai tai

I love "Adhesive", it was one of the many tracks where I wondered if he sucked helium out of a balloon before recording though.
also hate the Ju-On esque "i told you five or four times" gross vocal thing at the end of "Art School Girl"

The move toward Bowie/Zeppelin/Lennon was exactly what pulled me in.

I kinda think this might be No. 4 instead actually

Brad, just have to say real quick that I have mad respect for your musical opinions even when they diverge wildly from my own. Your enthusiasm is palpable.

also thanks to this thread i'm listening to a ton of stp and i think i've been underrating no. 4 for ages. "down," "heaven & hot rods," "church on tuesday," "sour girl," all pretty great. lmao that "no way out" is basically a nu-metal song though

Lol, I just looked up that song and it's only 2:52. I could have sworn it was close to 5 minutes.

"interstate love song"'s economy is part of why i think it's a really awesome song. two verses + two choruses + that riff
obv i do not begrudge stp haters, i've been there
