Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

He's Making a Tape - WIld Billy Childish and the MBEs
I like the guitar tone and the Career Opportunities hook. Can't say I'm a huge fan of the vocals, but they have great energy. It does remind me of being a teenager again, which gets more weird/depressing as I near 40. 8/10
Looking for a Job - Todd Snider
This isn't my thing, but I can appreciate what went into writing it and executing it. I like the harmony in the prechorus, it would be nice if it stuck around a bit longer. I kind of feel like this song could be maybe 5 bpm faster. 6/10
Jim on the Move - Lizzy Mercier Descloux
Kind of reminds me of Young Marble Giants. I'd have liked some lyrics, but it has a good feel and mood. Nice understated drum fill in the middle. 7/10
Fade Away - Junior Byles
I was already a Byles fan, so this is way the hell up my alley. The dub is a little weak—the dropouts come at awkward times and without heavy delay to shore them up, it's a little jarring. Do you know who did the mix on this? 8/10
Colour In Your Cheeks - The Mountain Goats
Not really my thing. Could have been a good skatepunk song maybe. I have a hard time getting interested in acoustic singer-songwriter stuff, it always seems like it's missing something. 2/10
