It's not really my style of music but they sound tight and it's a well-produced recording.

Yeah. There seems to have been this weird 90s nostalgia fetish going on in the DIY rock scene for a while.. And some of these bands are starting to get more attention beyond their basement shows. This band being one of them, and they often get this 90s revival and/or revisionist tag, with comparisons to pavement and Liz Phair when they're being written about. All silly to me but I really do like the album, and I don't necessarily think the comparisons are always fair or accurate.

my only beef with spotify is i cannot find or add any friends or followers, but people can find and follow me. that part is kind of stupid.

i think the only way to send someone a playlist directly is if you are friends on facebook or they follow you though

the problem is my account is not associated to facebook. people on facebook can find me by searching for my spotify username, but i cannot find theirs by their facebook ID or spotify username. it is gay.
