Traitorous Usurper
Anybody checked this out yet? If you haven't, you should. The ridiculously hyped reviews of this record aren't exaggerated--it's that good. Well-written, well-performed, and (were you wondering why I included this in this forum?) very well-recorded.
I never really gave a shit about these guys. I bought Dookie due to a couple of semi-cute tunes that got thrown on the radio, but even then I figured that a badly reconstituted Clash would never really amount to anything. Now it looks like they might have succeeded in recording one of the most perfect records of the last God-knows-how-many years. And it seems like the more of a predisposition one has for hating this band (yours truly) the bigger the pleasant surprise at how good this is.
Whaddya think?
