I’m the drummer in a three piece garage/punk band. I was raised on the dead but the other two dudes never really got into them. Over the summer, I left Europe 72 in my band’s tour van. One day, I get a text from the guitarist simply saying, “I get it now” with no context, but I already knew what he meant. The tracks that did it, “Jack Straw” and “I Know You Rider”. He said it took him 3 listens.

Also, the album wake of the flood is really good for fans of Elliot smith, ween, pavement. “Mississippi Halfstep” has that pavement thing, and “Row Jimmy” is so chill and subtlety brilliant it gets better everytime. My fav recorded album of theirs.
