I was lucky enough to see Saosin play one of their last shows on the farewell tour for Scary Kids Scaring kids, in Salt Lake. Cove’s performance that night was honestly amazing. I’d seen them play a few times before but he never sounded as solid and confident before that show.

In search of solid ground has to be one of my top 5 favorite Albums of all time and I really can’t imagine anyone else’s vocal style going as perfectly with Soasin’s sound. I hope they prove me wrong.

It’s great to read interviews/stories from a different perspective to the musician’s. Thanks for this. Great questioning.

I did like the Moz/similar bands references in http://podiobooks.com/title/how-to-disappear-completely/ – the work of another aspiring author. You might enjoy it as well, David, if you haven’t run across it already.

A true point, Cody, and the other reason for a simple honorable mention. Like you say, there are a few gems here that aren’t available in a studio album.

I am too big a Morrissey fan to say any one album is best but oh yeah Your Arsenal is something special and so much more powerful than Kill Uncle, which I still enjoy.

Thanks I had never heard this about Ronson before.

And side note if I may, my Book of Mormon historical novel is chock full of Morrissey lyrics/inside jokes, I’m pleased to know there are a few other artsy LDS Morrissey fans.

To clarify my first comment: Introducing compilations in discussions about the best Smiths/Morrissey albums is the first step in a slow descent to madness!

Some women just want to watch the world burn. You raise an interesting point. Compilations? But the second half Bona Drag is special since those tracks weren’t particularly available prior to BD. And Morrissey’s B-sides at that time were better than most band’s greatest hits. Hm, I’ll allow it.

I love Vauxhall and Arsenal for the collection of great songs as well as what they lack–subpar filler songs. Both great all the way through.

Tough, I will have to ruminate on whether one is better. They are pretty close albums and definitely tops, although the B-side of Bona Drag gets an honorable mention.

Comment on Linescratchers song of the week: Abinadi by GOGO13 by Cody

Strangely, even though their debut full-length just came out this year, GOGO13 predates the Aquabats. “Idiot Box” on the first Aquabats album is a GOGO13 cover.
