August 23: Sunny Day Real Estate - How it feels to be something on
As contrasted to "How it feels to be on something," which is completely different. Sort of.
Supposedly, Sunny Day Real Estate are one of the forefathers of emo, but if you remember them, it's because Dave Grohl swiped their bass player and drummer for the first incarnation of Foo Fighters. This is the "comeback" album from '98, when the drummer (but not Nate, the bass player) came back. I got this when I worked for the Tulane newspaper, and can't sell it, because it's just in a paper slipcase. I wasn't that impressed at the time, and I'm still not now. It reminds me of a third-rate Jane's Addiction.
