What do you all think about Unwound's final album? Had it playing in my car the other day for a few days and realized I had probably listened to it just as much or more than some SY records.
Really thinking about it, I would say this album reminds me of listening to Daydream Nation for the first time. It really changed the way I think about rock, just like DDN did.
DDN was the first real SY record I listened to, and I was a kid. My friend made me listen to it and I knew it was the shittiest band with the shittiest sound. Totally changed my life. When I heard Unwound, which Leaves was the first record, I was so pissed off. Here's this band trying to sound like SY but they fail so miserably. Like a third rate SY. Couple of listens later what the fuck brilliant.
