2 of my favorite songwriters are in Sebaboh, Lou Barlow (original bassist for Dinosaur Jr.) and Jason Loewenstein. Sebadoh were low-fi pioneers in the early 90’s and fit in nicely with the nirvana’s of the world. This album I bought in 1994 and there haven’t been too many weeks since I bought it that I haven’t given the disc a listen.

To me, this was their finest work. A lot of previous Sebadoh releases we’re too unfocussed for me. They’d go from folk to screamo to stoner metal. This album was their “nevermind”. Every song was well written, had great hooks and lyrically excellent. Any time you’re looking for a new way to say “I love you” or “I miss you”, give BakeSale a listen and you learn a new line or two. If you can’t find the CD, e-mail Sub-Pop records and demand a copy. Stand-out tracks are “Careful” and “Drama Mine”.
