Iblame Forgiveness Rock Record on the Tortoise guy. The production was way too tight and clean for my taste.

Plus Kevin Drew and Brendan Canning were the two least interesting members of BSS And now they are BSS. That is some dullness right there.

Agree on all counts. I'd say Charles Spearin is by far one of their most talented members - Kevin is really annoying live now, but Charles just shreds on everything.

I thought FRR was pretty good. Not nearly as good as self-titled or YFIIP, but still a good record by its own merits.

I've still never listened to Broken Social Scene

so, in order to keep this going for as long as possible: tell me what record to start with and why it is the best/best place to start. Give reasons! ...with bullet points!

and...and blackjack! Don't hold back the personal attacks!

I am not saying that you can't like drinking both wine and whiskey, I'm saying that my solution to not liking wine is to drink something that I do like, rather than trying to overwrite the years of experience that tell me to spit out rotten grape juice.

All based off of rotten grapes. I have not tasted any wine that I could stand drinking, and I don't even like being close enough to smell it. I've heard it's an acquired taste, but I'm not really in any hurry to acquire it.

You can talk about all of the varied textures and bouquet and mouthfeel and shit like that, but to someone that isn't into it, it all tastes the same. Like grape juice that should have been thrown out years ago.

Haha, dude is aaaalways trashed. He's definitely one of the best songwriters in BSS (though, the last Apostle of Hustle album sucked), but I just think Charles is their most talented musician.

Why not? There are plenty of people that enjoy wine with a passion normally reserved for group sex, and I'm willing to bet that a handful of them started out as staunch opponents to the beauties of getting blitzed off a bottle of grapes.
