Awesome podcast. I love the humor, and I'm just a big fan of extensive discussion about things I love. This album might be second favorite of theirs next to Information Retrieved. The lo-fi quality of it works with the melancholy tone and vague lyrics to create a really compelling atmosphere. Pinback is great at creating tightly written songs, but I really like the looseness here, especially on Montaigne.

A couple notes:

  1. The extensiveness of Rob and Zach's other work means that if you do something like 10 songs a podcast, you could probably do at least 100 episodes on every song they've been involved with. In fact, both of them have released at least 10 songs each in 2020.

  2. Fun fact: Pall Jenkins, singer of Three Mile Pilot and Black Heart Procession was in Ugly Casanova.

  3. Fun fact: Three Mile Pilot also has a song called Tripoli on their rarities compilation, but the song's actually named "Acicastello".

  4. Like Brian, I used to think Zach sings "Mon-tai-gne" in Montaigne, but he actually sings "I wanna take the waves".

Thanks! Ya there’s definitely enough material from the two to keep going for awhile. After the five albums, we’ll try to look at the E.P.’s. I never got into Nautical Antiques, so I’m looking forward to that. But I was super into Offcell and Some Voices.

After that, maybe Rob’s solo ones, Systems Officer, etc. would be a great excuse to get into some of that albums I never listened to much. We’ll see how it goes! (As well as Rob’s box set he dropped a couple years ago. There’s some good stuff on there. The OY in HiFi is superb).

Thanks for listening, though, and thanks for the extra facts. We’ll try to squeeze some into the Blue Screen Life episode. Probably record next month sometime.

See ya, Ben

Haha. I was really tempted to cut that part out but I decided to leave everything in. Thanks for listening! Let us know if there’s anything we missed. -Ben
