“Shooting Dirty Pool” has some incredible guitar sounds. I love the emotional arc of Pleased To Meet Me, intentional or not—the uncertainty and restrained nervous energy of “Nightclub Jitters” that turns sinister in “The Ledge,” the adrenaline and combativeness of Side B that winds down into the melancholy but hopeful “Skyway” and “Can’t Hardly Wait.” I think every ‘Mats record has some semblance of this, but PTMM sounds to me starker, more explicit in its moods.

Rhino has some competition from Domino Records for most beguiling shipping department. Fans of Animal Collective jumped on a big sale in November and they’re still empty-handed without a word from the vendor. Incredible. How hard is it, if there’s a hang-up, to at least apologize and give an update? (I know Rhino did this, kinda, with Dead Man’s Pop, but still...) In a world where Amazon is so easy (ethics aside), why aren’t small players “stepping up their game”? Kinda baffling/dispiriting. But to be more positive, glad they’re finally arriving!

Rhino seems like it's run by stoners...They get high and have a great idea: "We should see if The Replacements would let us do a big fancy reissue of 'Pleased To Meet Me'!" "Yeah, let's do that!" Six weeks later: "Man, did you ever do anything with that Replacements reissue?" "Oh, shit, I forgot about that!"
