who needs MORE 'beautiful metaphor driven'? yughk. when i listen to music i wanna hear some unique narrative, detail, reality, opinion, originality, etc. i appreciate music that grows along side me and challenges me as a listener. what if Kozelek was comin' over to your house? you start cookin' him dinner, you bust your ass to make dude some blue crab cakes just cause you wanna make sure he likes the food. then he shows up sulking, and starts gnawing your ear off about girls. you gonna sit there and cry with him at the dinner table? HELL NO! dude, he's an old fuckin' man! i don't wanna hear that shit anymore! i'd kick that fool outta my house! i value his complaints, gripes and even his gossip infinitely more. it makes him truthful, textural and gives him dynamics -- coincidentally i feel the same about his last two records musically. that's something, as a post-19-year-old, i can get behind. 
 
also, all this 'ah, he half-assed it,' and 'he probably wrote it in a week'. are you fucking insane? YOU write something this good in a week, ya flippin' joker! 
 
someone made a good point about Benji being the point of polarization. i think that's right on the money; these last two records challenge the listener wayyy more than any of his past work. he takes way more risks(successfully in my view), his influences are way less obvious and therefore it's way less contrived to my ears. Benji and now Universal are easily my favorites to date. both are completely unique listening experiences. doesn't mean i don't like the old stuff. i just don't think they compare. it's hard think of another artist that's progressed this much at this age; not usually how it works.
 
we're currently living through the dividing line and that is very exciting to me. i love that people don't understand how fuckin' incredible his new records are and i genuinely look forward to someone trashing what i just wrote.

gawd i luv when people announce their unsubscribing. it's like a retirement press conference that no one cares about. it's been a great run, filthyrich. big hand for filthyrich!

And really, your 'feedback' doesn't necessarily represent your ability as an effective trader/buyer/seller. You need to feel them out in addition.
 
My feedback took a huge hit cause some moron on here was wrong and I called him out. Bamm! -5 from him and his buds. What a joke. The user, Nelso330, has a positive 90 score and I have a 1. I've had an immaculate track record and this dude takes a month to ship something. Pffft. It's tough, cause there's an element of trust, but you gotta feel 'em out. :/ 
 
I'm sorry to hear about your experience. That fuckin' sucx. 

$150 and about to find out the other

hey, so my lady and I each ended up with a Moon copy. we agreed that if someone could hook us up with a good lead on some other Kozelek stuff or just arrange a straight up trade, we would be happy to help someone out with this.
 
i somehow didn't get in on the Red House Painters box from Bullmoose, despite being several numbers lower(52313) than others reporting shipping confirmation -- not really sure what to do about this. but if someone wants to trade an extra box + i give you the cash difference, that'd be tyte.
 
anyhow, open to any trades for the Koz. thank you.

everyone who ordered that 'limited' edition glow-in-the-dark record(still available) on the day it came out should get 2 flippin' bonus 10". there ain't a damn store anywhere near San Francisco that sells dis shett.
