THIS RECORD IS A MASTERPIECE!, February 14, 1999
This review is from: Sebadoh III (Audio CD)
Everytime I listen to the twenty-plus tracks, my faith in humanity has been redeemed. Everything about this album is insanely cool, especially Lou Barlow's anthem "The Freed Pig" which espouses his contempt for his former Dinosaur bandmate J. Mascis. Basically, this album saved rock and roll.

"Blood on the Walls, Blood on the Walls", August 27, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Sebadoh III (Audio CD)
Sebadoh's III is the band's finest moment, the definition of indie rock, considered by many to be one of the greatest albums of the '90s (see Spin).
The whole reason to purchase this record can be found in the last song, "As the World Dies, The Eyes of God Grow Bigger", Gaffney's autobiography of frustration, rage and vengeance against those who dared wrong him. His voice wavers between affected, sing-songy taunts and throat-ripping screams, ending the song with a dire warning ("...Now you're gonna die!"). It absolutely needs to be experienced. Only headphones will let you begin to unravel the multi-layers of this vitriolic masterpiece.
"Legends of torture rock you sleep."
There is no reason in the world why anyone should be without this album.
