I really like them. "Psychotic Girl" has been one of my favorite tracks off of Attack & Release. I really don't think they've put out an album that I haven't enjoyed.

Heard 'em first on Pandora. Got most of their work. Attack and Release was a little too pop, IMO, but The Big Come Up and Rubber Factory are awesome.

I highly recommend Thickfreakness and Rubber Factory if you are going to get any of their albums.

For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity, that they may be without excuse. Because knowing God, they didn’t glorify him as God, and didn’t give thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.

Duh. Forgot Thickfreakness. Thanks, Ron. "10 AM Automatic" and "Brooklyn Bound" have been more my speed for the last 4 months or so.

"When the Lights Go Out" from the Black Snake Moan soundtrack:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6KwiyiFkQmg

I thought they sounded familiar.

If I understand your query, create a playlist and set autoplay to "on".

I like 'em!
Personally, I do not understand how a bunch of people demanding a bigger govt can call themselves anarchist.
I meet lots of folks like this, claim to be anarchist but really they're just liberals with pierced genitals. - gunsmith

So I'm not the only one...

Sorry if it was a dumb question.  I haven't listened to commercial music stations in years*, so I never know what people are listening to.  I found 'em on Pandora.


*Except for our FM classical music station, but that one's changing to "contemporary Christian".  shudder  =(

I've heard them on the radio once in the last few years. They don't get radio play in Chicagoland as far as I can tell.
