Yep, that's right, a two-fer. So in the spirit of getting jazzed up for the Dinosaur Jr. show, some Sebadoh today and some Jay tomorrow. Bakesale may be Sebadoh's most celebrated album, and in my opinion, for good reason. These indie angst anthems employed the Pixie's quiet - loud dynamic and lyrics of dissolution all in fuzzy guitar wrapped 3-minute indie rock gems.
Although "Magnet's Coil" possesses a more uptempo beat and poperiffic sound, it's just as angry as any of the other songs on Bakesale. "Drama Mine" (notice clever wordplay, bravo Lou!)builds on a muted guitar riff, to a simple but arresting progression to the climax where the lyric "It's like wasting everything on someone else's dream," are screamed to your heart's acrimonious content. Both songs classics off of a timeless record.
