Went with Sambadrome but a toss up between that and Hollywood Boulevard. I like the remake of HB but thought it was weak on the original vinyl release.

Some very nice guitar playing, but the track lies limp.

Controversial opinion but I thought Upping St was a great EP. Maybe they were rushed but I still remember the disappointment when I first played it. It did have a bit to live up to after the first album.

The choice for me was Sambadrome vs Dial a Hitman, but I'll tap the former to exit because the latter does have a goofy charm.

Surprised at Beatbox getting 2 votes, one of their best tracks for me.

And a fuck of an opening track—like SEH. Just that exploding power right out of the gate. Second album, too.

Voting off sambadrome as it's another one that I always only sorta vaguely recall when I'm not actually listening to it.

Beatbox just doesn't come together for me. I feel like they've reached for something that's out of their grasp.

I really love about half the album and half of it doesn’t do much for me. Which is (after TIBAD) kind of my BAD experience.

I listened to it Wednesday and I’m pretty sure I forgot it DURING the listening.

I like Beatbox and wouldn’t vote for it for another few rounds, but I think you’re technically right.Silent Majority wrote: ↑17 May 2019, 9:02amBeatbox just doesn't come together for me. I feel like they've reached for something that's out of their grasp.

I always read Sambadrome as sadtrombone.
Got a Rake? Sure!
