Given all the nominating going on, I offer mclusky’s The Difference Between Me and You Is That I’m Not on Fire as Album Title of the Year. The album’s music ain’t bad either. Producer Steve Albini’s influence continues to rub off on these talented lads in the form of increasingly noisy, sometimes sneering, and always witty rock to the roll. “Without MSG…” is but one flavor — the surprisingly thoughtful “She Will Only Bring You Happiness” being quite another — so check the album for the full menu.
mclusky is good. i really like these guys. i would proboably put them in my top 20 releases this year.
I’m really enjoying ‘Without MSG I Am Nothing’. Must try and track down the album.
And sadly it appears that McLusky have now split up.
