Writing a review for a previous RC album counts toward the total too, so if that's your thing, check out the archives. Otherwise, continue on below to start listening and to start prepping that review that will help us reach our goal.

READING SOME SHIT: The Quietus interviewed frontman Andrew Falkous in 2019.
PREVIOUSLY ON RECORD CLUB: Wikipedia tells me that Bully covered the magnificently-named "Lightsabre C0cksucking Blues" in concert. Which means Bully connects in like 1.5 ways at least, since frontwoman Alicia Bognanno interned at Steve Albini's studio Electrical Studio, and that's where and with whom Mclusky recorded Mclusky Do Dallas. Though since Bognanno is like 30 years old and this album is 20 years old, there is VERY LITTLE chance that she was interning there at that time.
Happy listening, fam! Have a great week!
