[dubman]

i dunno what counts as "ages" for someone who runs through tens of records in a couple weeks, but karl is actually right about shining.
the one before, which, confusingly enough, is the name of the lead-off song on this new one (which is high in the running for best song of 2007 so far) didnt quite do it for me. it was too much of a mess.
but this is the direction i needed them to take to tip the balance and make a record i think is really brilliant.

more lightning bolt and less sax noodling=win.

grindstone is a damn good album and thanks to karl for pushing me to hear it.
