A good album I haven't heard in three yers. The title track or "Surface Envy."

Funny, I was just listening to "Dig Me Out." Sleater-Kinney was one of those bands I saw a million times, loved every time, meant a lot to me and I thought broke up at just the right moment. For that reason I don't think I gave this album any more time than I gave, say, the Wild Flag. Which was good! But which I can't remember a minute of, though I assume there are guitars involved.

Maybe I'll give it another shot. I recall it was pretty good!

solid little album and a good model for reunion records - unfussy, economical, impassioned

"A New Wave" has the video done by Lauren Bouchard with the Bob's Burgers characters, so I'll go with that.

Ooh, I haven't listened to this in a while either. Will need to revisit before I vote. That was a remarkable year for reunion albums. In particular remembering this, Failure, and Veruca Salt.

"A New Wave" would easily make my list of top 5 S-K songs.

A good album I haven't heard in three years.

lol exactly. "bury our friends" and "a new wave" are still exhilarating, but I need to listen again to remind myself about how much i love "surface envy" and "fangless." "gimme love" was fun live, but i haven't returned to the recording much

I also haven't really gone back to this, probs Surface Envy. Found it pretty weird live when the new singles got bigger reactions than stuff like 'Get Up'.

Just gave this a spin and Bury Our Friends is obviously the centerpiece.

A New Wave. What a riff-fest.

two weeks pass...

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

Finally threw a last-minute vote to "Fangless". The aggressive numbers--"Fangless", "No Anthems", "Price Tag", "Surface Envy", "Bury Our Friends"--have been a really fitting soundtrack to the Trump years.
