I don't like Thriller. On the other hand, I really like Cup. Should I just get the link to all of you?

To expand a bit. Dananananaykroyd reminds me, in a way, of the Part Chimp we get on Cup. If you listen to both, Hey Everyone sounds a lot like the latter with the distortion kept to a manageable level, and lacking the attempt to rupture your eardrums at a reasonable level. The album (Cup) was fast, loud, noisy, fractured, crazy, and owed as much to post-hardcore bands like At the Drive-In as it did hard rockers from the psychedelic 70's and noise rock acts. Thriller sort of dumbed the music down, so that the band now basically sounds very unoriginal, essentially rehashing loads of other heavy stoner noise acts that have come before. Needless to say, I was hugely disappointed.
