What is your favorite TMBG album, and why is it Apollo 18 on repeat shuffle?

Unpopular opinion incoming… I was listening to the albums in order recently. I love the first three from start to end, but I couldn’t get through Apollo 18 without having the urge to skip Mammal and Dinner Bell - I find the vocal melodies really grating in those tracks.

Having Fingertips shuffled around the album almost makes up for it, if you’re listening to a proper version which doesn’t have them bundled into one track.

I do like Mammal and Dinner Bell, but I otherwise see what you mean about the album. I feel like the meh songs of the album are:

  • Dig My Grave
  • Schpidah! (Though he still is my hero.)
  • Hypnotist of Ladies
  • Space Suit
