Swingin’ Utters - Five Lessons Learned
Armchair Martian - S/T
Samiam - You Are Freaking Me Out
https://fatwreck.com/collections/swingin-utters/products/five-lessons-learned
This record has a lot of personnel. We are shockingly positive about this record. Are macbook cords caviar for cats? Should you trust that car from your gearhead friend? What are the potential consequences of befriending that mature student in your art class?

Albums Discussed:
Snuff - Tweet Tweet My Lovely
Husker Du - Zen Arcade
Fucked Up - Dose Your Dreams
https://fatwreck.com/products/tweet-tweet-my-lovely
Snuff: a ticking timebomb. Humor, ability, and nine different tempos. What a deadly combination. Ben makes a god damn fool out of himself reading tweets he thinks are funny. “I love this 70 minute record.”

Albums Discussed: Bracket - E Is For Everything; The Promise Ring - Nothing Feels Good; Superchunk - Here’s Where The Strings Come In; https://fatwreck.com/products/e-is-for-everything-on-fat; A real change of pace. We get sidetracked admiring the Caroline Records roster. We’re all just guests in someone else’s talk show. B is for Bondage Volume 1. We chuckle way too much. We research Frankie Muniz beefs. Listen to Dumptruck - “For The Country”.

Ben screws up a Dirty Work joke. More Dropkick Murphys hate. “Spicy McHaggis can eat a meat pie!” We also didn’t do our homework so Alex has a new edition of Maximum Obscurity. Most of this record is about alcohol.
