Have you not listen to theNope. I'm allergic to twang unless it's accompanied by guitar peddles or slide guitar. I don't even like Jack White's solo stuff.

I own a copy on blue wax and have not yet listened to a single second of it. I purchased it on a whim from my local. I havenāt cared for much of Whiteās solo stuff but everyone keeps saying itās White Stripes level album.Have you not listen to theJack White album?! Because it's one of the best rock records of the year! I'd go as far as saying it's even better than some White Stripes albums

My take was it was alright.I own a copy on blue wax and have not yet listened to a single second of it. I purchased it on a whim from my local. I havenāt cared for much of Whiteās solo stuff but everyone keeps saying itās White Stripes level album.
Itās a bit of a āSchrƶdinger albumā as long as I donāt listen to it the longer I have to not be disappointed when it doesnāt meet the lofty expectations.
So rest of albumā¦Iāve gotten through the first four songs in FJM. Donāt hate the title track. she Cleans Up might be one of the worst sounding tracks I have ever heard. Everything about it, especially the dumb ass rapping is distracting. Josh Tillman and the Accidental Dose is okayā¦. But one of the things I actually like about him is his voice and the lazy vocal (which given the lyrics is probably intentional) is off putting. Mental Health is pretty good.
Same... but still not enough there to draw me back much.
Same.
And as for my placement, right now I'd go:
1. Comedy
2. Honeybear
3. Fear
4. Customer
5. Mahash
6. Chloe
Yeah, Comedy would be near the bottom for me, still great but a bit more dour on humanity in a way that I have to be in the mood for. Better in small chunksā¦.Same.

I agree with this.Fear fun and customer are pretty interchangeable in their rankings.
That "dour on humanity" is exactly why Comedy is my favourite Flubby Jake Mushrooms albumYeah, Comedy would be near the bottom for me, still great but a bit more dour on humanity in a way that I have to be in the mood for. Better in small chunksā¦.
Fuck it, hereās mine.

I get that and the album contains some incredible tracks but I enjoy when he focuses the loathing inward.That "dour on humanity" is exactly why Comedy is my favourite Flubby Jake Mushrooms album![]()
This, but I'd probably flip 2&3. But as you and @Fleetwood-Matt said, they are interchangeable. 'Pure Comedy', I can listen to side A pretty much anytime, but the rest I need to be in the mood for.Yeah, Comedy would be near the bottom for me, still great but a bit more dour on humanity in a way that I have to be in the mood for.
