5.0 out of 5 stars when a comp listens like an album, you know you've got something..., March 18, 2008

This review is from: Hey Drag City (Audio CD)

Compilations typically get short shrift from listeners -- they appear, go out of print, and are gone. If exclusive tracks ever resurface, it's on some deluxe retrospective box set.

Drag City has put out an eminently listenable gem here. If you bought it for the Pavement song, The Silver Jews, or The Palace Brothers -- you'll listen to it for the protean Royal Trux track, the pre-Califone Red Red Meat track, or the acid-drenched Fruitcake track. There is some superb mid-fi psyche rock here, a true gem from the early days of the indie explosion.

Greatest. Palace. Song. Ever. For the Mekons et al makes this necessary, even if the rest of the disc was blank. But it's not. Your Face may be my favorite Smog offering as well.
