ATL is fantastic. One of the few SY releases I actually managed to snag on vinyl. Contre Le Sexism is one of the band's worst songs though - such an atrocious start to a masterful album. If anyone here would like to explain the appeal of that track, in hopes of me growing an appreciation for it, I'd be extremely grateful.
And yes Trompe Le Monde rules. I never really listen to the pixies though. Still a chill ass band
