A...The guy who gave Travistan a 0 is a total dick. And he ruined T-Mo's career. <BR/><BR/>You're OTM about that Coltrane live record. As for Branca, I'm not a fan but I dunno, I like pure noise experiences. The 9.6 for Keith Fullerton Whitman's "Playthroughs" was well-deserved - if you like incredibly minimal, pure tones that are still heratbreaking, I highly recommend it.<BR/><BR/>I totally agree on Neutral Milk Hotel. That's '90s indie rock's finest moment. More indie bands today should have the balls to sing "JEEEEESSSSSSSSSSUUUSSSSSSSSSSSSSS CHRRRIIISSSSTTTTTTTT I LOVE YOUUUUUUUU" like that.<BR/><BR/>And you crack me up with English Settlement ... that is kind of a wtf. It's not XTC's most popular record. But I remember, in 1990, a couple Boston Globe critics listed it as their favorite album of the decade. And if you set aside a couple weaker tracks ("Knuckle Down," "Fly on the Wall,") the rest is just some kind of genius - really the pinnacle of their career, even if you get misty for Skylarking.<BR/><BR/>10.0.
