"Hear it is" by The Flaming Lips.
- I'm sorry, but all that Yoshimi and Soft Bulletin shit is so corny. It's like if you mixed The Replacements with early-to-mid '00s The Shins/Mumford and Sons/Of Montreal Kia Commercial indie music.
"The Blood Brothers" 7'' by The Blood Brothers (the self titled on Hopscotch records)
- It was just straight up post-hardcore/screamo and was legit good. Those four songs are the best four songs on "Rumors Laid Waste." It was literally like immediately after that when they started getting cringy. The other tracks on that compo are a little cringy, same with "This Adultery is Ripe" and "March on Electric Children" -- although that's all still listenable. Then "Burn Piano Island Burn" is barely listenable - and only so because of nostalgia. Everything after that is off-the-charts cringe.
