Shame about Glean. If they had selected the best from all of the dial-a-song, would have been an easy AOTY.

Apophenia, ECNALUBMA, I Love You for Psychological Reasons, and It Said Something should have been included over some of the crap.
>>
Wouldn't you rather people listen to a TMBG album that isn't one of their weakest?
>>
>>66363179
that's what the follow up, phone power, was for
love tmbg, DAS 15 was awesome, there were more good songs than bad
TMBG is my favorite band, no shame
>>
>>66363205
>weakest
That's mink car fucktardo
>>
>>66363227
I love TMBG too, but some of Glean just felt off.
Madam I Challenge You..., Hate the Villanelle, and I'm a Coward shouldn't have made the cut
>>
>>66363247
I like the 9/11 album.
I have problems.
>>
This is now a TMBG thread
>>
>>66363103
People really should listen to TMBG more.
>>
>>66363276
agreed. still, das15 had more great songs than duds. Let Me Tell You... Music Jail, Prepare, Shapeshifters...
>>66363292
mink car would be a solid 7/10 if it didn't have a certain 2 songs... you know the ones
>>
>>66363247
>Man, It's So Loud In Here
>Older
>Finished With Lies
>Working Undercover for the Man

Mink Car is fantastic you absolute plebe

>>66363349
Which ones?
>>
the one with the whale and the squid on the cover is MY favorite, fite me
>>
>>66363349
Don't really know what ones our talking about but I think they're Mr. Xcitement and I've Got a Fang.
They're different then most on the album but I like them.
>>
>>66363103
That cover really looks like a cover for an old obscure album I saw some weeks ago on discogs
I remember noticing it on spot, "wow this really looks like that TMBG cover, it must have been done by the same guy"
But I can't find anything about it now

>>66363357
>no Hopeless Bleak Despair

Mr. Xcitment and Wicked Little Critta
absolutely the 2 worst songs ever recorded.

Wicked Little Critta is actually good
just get to the 2nd half of it

TMBG have consistently put out great albums. Not a single album lower than 7/10. That might just me being a fanboy though.
>>
Whats the consensus on PP?
>>
>>66363477
has serious highlights, and some pure trash
considering it's free, grab it. some of their very best b-sides
>>
>>66363398
>>66363410
those songs rule though

>>66363408
I have no idea how I missed Hopeless Bleak Despair since it's probably the best on the album
>>
>>66363467
Same here. Huge fanboy.
>>
Favorite TMBG song?

Mine is definitely:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tt8YLlVJGQg

Honestly no idea. I'll just say it's a tie between Experimental Film, They'll Need A Crane, Nothing's Gonna Change My Clothes and Dr. Worm

The first half at least.
Same goes for Nanobots.

I dislike Dr. Worm.
I'm sorry.

Nanobots is in their top 5 albums for me
>>
>>66363720
i will never understand how these two didn't make it onto albums.

lets not forget
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-MkzxnTZHKw
never officially made it on an album

That's ok, it was the song that hooked me and I've never grown tired of it.

they have some bizarre unreleased stuff
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QP3bOqqTqqs
also GOAT creepy songs
>>
>>66363825
Of course we do, you're their third best album.

>>66363831
They just released like 3 albums this past year. I'm hoping they take some time to recharge and put together something a little stronger than Glean was
>>
>>66363831
probably 2018 or 19... they tend to do things every two years or so
>>

>>
>>66363974
holy fuck. haven't heard this one before.
genuinely creepy song.
>>
>>66363103
Glean had a few really good songs on it and a lot of shitty songs

Erase, Music Jail, Unpronounceable, and Operation are all GOAT

I guess that's TMBG's problem in general; most of their albums are only half good but they've made enough albums that it makes them look impressive how many good songs they've made

>>66364000
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZSw0LByDvPw some of this stuff is outright bizarre
