You might be. I shop there all the time and never have a problem. I saw the record/jacket and it's definitely a really nice copy. I think the prices at Grouch are much better than Academy or Captured Tracks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw the record/jacket and it's definitely a really nice copy. I think the prices at Grouch are much better than Academy or Captured Tracks. you're probably right. I just bought a Bleed American from him once and forgot to check out the LPS till I walked out and one had a huge huge scratch on it. and he was charging NM prices on it. but maybe it was just that time that left a bad taste in my mouth. glad someone finds good stuff in there.

fish Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 And another SKM/Jesu album that nobody is looking forward to next June: http://www.sunkilmoon.com/hesbad/ I wish they'd go the Clams Casino route and release the instrumentals along with the regular album.

That new track from it is ungodly awful....what the hell kind of effort does it require to write lyrics like "Blah blah blah blah...". So disappointed again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billya Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 (edited) I don't carry the same level of distaste for newer Kozelek stuff that some people do, but that track is terrible. Why would you write a song ranting about how you're glad that Michael Jackson is dead? This is the same guy who included the fact that he wouldn't talk about a guy who gunned innocent people down in a church because he looked like a boy and not a man.

I really must admit I liked God Bless Ohio better than any of the other rambling style songs he's put out recently, but this new one is just such trash and a really tasteless attack based on a conversation he had.... He should either write real songs again or just quit, simple as that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're under no obligation to listen to any material he releases. I haven't had time to listen to the new song, but I think that his last couple albums have been just as interesting as what he was releasing in the early SKM days. His style has changed and perhaps he should have picked a different moniker to release the new material under. Seems that some people have an easier time dealing with a large shift when it's under a different name. Overall though, he's writing songs for himself at this point and I think we're lucky that he chooses to release them at all. I'm glad he's challenging himself and the listeners. It doesn't always work, but at least it's not the same release over and over again. He's not going to be writing another April and people just need to accept that.

youspinmeround Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 And speaking of mark, his vcoal appearance on the minor victories album feels so out of place and continues in his "storytelling " mode. I watched some videos of jesu/skm shows and his talking and the actual songs just blend into long sessions of nothing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeardedSteven Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 I love that Minor Victories track! I think Rachel singing in his style is perfect and a highlight of that album. I will agree that maybe a name change would have helped with his stylistic change in songwriting. A July 2016 announcement of a June 2017 album is pretty silly tho.

Tommy Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 (edited) to each his own opinion. I'm going to keep calling him Wesley Willis for as long as he keeps making music that sounds like a schizophrenic person with a mic.

Jackie Crackrock Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 as the person who initially made that now semi-popular comparison, i would just like to say that it was made to compliment both Wesley Willis and Mark Kozelek. i am a huge fan of both of those guys.
