ok, that song has something to it that I like. … From the face of my co-worker I can see that it does not seem to fit everyones taste though

Appreciate the mention of Olivia Tremor Control - amazing album. Also mentioning Pinkerton instead of Blue album is like a secret gang hand sign. Yeah, he’s in the same gang as I am.

Both are kind of personal compromises between them and their counterparts, Neutral Milk and the Blue album: I can totally understand either in place of OTC and Pinkerton on a list, but I personally like them more. OTC for the patchwork 60s songwriting / production modernized and Pinkerton cause its TMI vulnerable and Fridmann’s production slams.
I hope you post a list!

I always felt like Grandaddy was a more interesting much less loved Radiohead but I can’t listen to them anymore really… they annoy the hell out of me too.

Oh yes.
Interesting! I like Grandaddy, but thought the Software Slump (at least) was a bit derivative of Radiohead (and Flaming Lips).

Well, a Phish album has yet to be mentioned…
Threads like this annoy the hell out of me as I end up fixatating on the question all day wondering what album was from what year and what I might of missed.
Two I need to mention to clear my conscious: Ween’s The Mollusk, Susumu Yokota’s Acid Mt. Fuji an The Cure Blood Flowers.
