Because I ... I don't. It's just throwaway jams with riffs and harmonics that I'd heard 700 times before ("Basement Contender", "In & Out") or noise jams, although pretty good ones at times ("Social Static")
The only decent track is "Machine".



I guess I'm not a fan enough to appreciate this kind of stuff, but to me it feels just like milking former glory.

funny you should say that because im not a "fan" or a collector or anything, seriously, i just like what i like, regardless of who made it, ans... i like the loose quality of basement contender. it's like someone practicing in their garage or something. basement, i guess, per the title.

and it's exactly the "throwaway" quality of the jam that i like. not because nostalgia or loyalty or worship or personality anything, not because "this person did it", but because for me it evokes a lazy midly hangover sunday mood hahaha. yes it's a bit long and repetitive in the late middle, but overall i like the imperfection.

i also like out & in. yes structurally it's a bit broken in parts but the parts are great to my ears.
