Liz Phair - Exile in Guyville
 
 

Listening to it for the first time today, and it's really good, i like it a lot.
Favourite songs so far are 'Glory', 'Explain it to me' and 'Shatter'.
(P.S. Thanks thanks to Derek (magicwheelmemory) for giving me this album)

Your thoughts?

i am also liking Aimee Mann at the moment. Anyone here like her?

i love that album.

screamingskull 09.18.2007 11:27 AM

are any of her other albums this good?

Everyneurotic 09.18.2007 11:30 AM

from what i hear, the one right after exile is pretty good too, then next one not so much and after that it's all rubbish. but i haven't heard most of them.

although, i have to say i really like that "why can't i" song from her first major label album.

True. I haven't heard those in a long time so i think i'll break them out. After that,she got real bland, slick production. Always loved her voice..her and Mary Timony have been my favorite chick singers for a long time now.

yes, have to clarify that the only commercial liz song i like is why can't i, and actually i was really surprised i liked it. but the rest i've heard are shite, like dumbed down avril lavigne.

Oh yeah, guyville is great and whipsmart pretty good too.
I also have whitechocolatespaceegg, which isn't up to much.

Rob Instigator 09.18.2007 01:49 PM

whitechocolatespaceegg has some good songs on it though

Supernova (off whip smart) is one of the greatest pop songs of all time.

Do you have a turntable? If you do, I'll send you a copy, I have a spare. PM me.

Cantankerous 09.18.2007 03:31 PM

i always liked 6'1"
and that album cover is great

Torn Curtain 09.18.2007 05:05 PM

Well, I recently gave the record a listen and didn't see what the fuss was about :o

Bicorn Halfelven 09.19.2007 12:23 AM

Whip Smart is great.

I got rid of all my Liz Phair stuff over the years except for that... the reason being that I love "Supernova"... it's been one of my favorite songs since it came out, and takes me to a certain time and place in my younger years.

Good shit.
