the title song by itself is amazing. Kims great singing then that killer gtr solo and my favorite(but not my neighbors) huge and sexy noise blowout... makes me want to kick holes in the walls!

in a grls eyes this album is different kims sings about lots of things that were on our minds when it was released I know most hate it but little troubled girl is awesome. all little bad bitches can relate

Rob Instigator 05.07.2010 03:39 PM

I love the album. I apologize if this has already been discussed, but I did a search here and checked the Wikipedia entry for Washing Machine and can't find anything. Anyone know the story behind the cover?

I think they deliberately cut the kids' heads off in the photo because they didn't have consent to use it.

two fans after 04/28/95 amherst gig. shirts are signed by opening band come. good theory re: cutting their heads off, i have an mtv bulletin on tape where they were asking the kids to contact the band for permission to use it, but maybe they didn't get it. actually, i seem to recall that bulletin shows the cover exactly as is, so maybe that's just how the picture looked (or decapitating them was an aesthetic choice).

Agreed with Rob...very uneven album. (You should love that review, dude.)

Little Trouble Girl is a direct ancestor of I Love You Golden Blue...

yeah, but you love 'a thousand leaves' :p

Skip Tracer and the end of Becuz thrown in there at the end are the only imperfections. They should have thrown them out and made The Diamond Sea its full 25 minutes.

SYHamilton 05.09.2010 05:21 PM

I wish they had made a video for Washing Machine (the song). All the transitions, the guitar solos and the noise sequence- it just evokes so many images.

Can't they all be direct antecedents to I Love You Golden Blue? :) Really, I can picture the girl in Little Trouble Girl all grown up and deeply in love in Golden Blue... But musically, yeah, Shadow of a Doubt has much more in common with Golden Blue...

Rob Instigator 05.10.2010 10:28 AM

I Love You Golden Blue is, I think, a song about losing your pet dog.
it is very sad
