Swirlies, man.
I tell everyone, you know, that record Salons (They Spent Their Wild Youthful Days in the Glittering World of the Salons) is one of the absolute best rock records of the 1990s and nobody's heard it. It just died when it came out because the guy who owned TAANG! moved to San Diego and tried to cash in on pop-punk, completely screwed them over.
The tour Damon tried to stitch together for it was so painful, some of the best live shows you could imagine and there were like six people there. I was mortified seeing it in Albany, it was really like "Am I taking crazy pills" because everyone I played that record for loved it, and I wouldn't shut up about it and still won't.
People are telling you about the fucking Flaming Lips? About The Soft Bulletin? Get the fuck out of here, spend your time on something a hundred times more emotionally honest and musically inventive.

>he doesn't know who the swirlies are

I don't get his obsession with Salons, Blonder Tongue is just a much better record, despite it being a mish mash between sonic youth and my bloody valentine (albeit not the best)
