Title: yawn
Product review: steve albini sounds tired. every other review seems to tote "prayer to god" like its some major breakthrough. i think he's just screwing around on that one actually. matter o' fact, it sounds like he's pretty much screwing around on the whole record. everything that WAS inventive about shellac is now not. for someone who prided themselves on breaking up his bands just after they hit their peak, albini sure missed the mark w/ shellac.. they try to break new ground with songs like new number order and song against itself, and it's quite sad.. mamma gina and QRJ are just mastabatorial nonsense. oooo is that a drum roll? wow! ok, ok, squirrel song kicks a little ass, but that's IT.to use a tired metaphor: watching the career of shellac is like watching a pretty girl go fat. if you really try, you can see the hot skinny chick she once was, but it's getting harder and harder to.. anyway, it's just a damned shame she got all fat.
