At The Drive-In - Acrobatic Tenement(1996)

So i guess the whole band except for Jim Ward and Cedric the Entertainer was replaced between this record and the one before. It is really obvious because this album is actually not a load of stupid bullshit. None of the songs have any fruity crap in it and Jim Ward's screams in the background now sound like they mean something instead of just the wails of a pre-pubescent teen who just found out his mom took away all his hustler gay porn mags.

Musically, the band has really locked down a sound that is immediately much more satisfying than the preceding records. There's a lot of interesting stuff going on here.Maybe someone slipped something into their burrito bowls.

If every record they did after this one sounded like this, they still would go down as one of the all-time greats. They just had such a great vocalist in front of them! It'd too bad he ended up finding his true calling in life was to stretch peoples buttholes WIDE open and piss into them only to gargle the butt vomit that would eventually spring forth

At The Drive-In - ¡Alfaro Vive, Carajo!(1995)

The next year, ATDI managed to record music that is even worse.

The second track literally has a bass-line that feels line a pimple-clad middle schooler would write. There is also this song on here with these annoying background skanks singing on it. I can't remember which one??? Fuck this bullshit. This albums sounds a lot better but the songwriting is literally worse. avoid this EP like a creepy baby fuckerpersons rape truck

At The Drive In - Hell Paso(1994)

I'm now going to go through the entire recording history of Jim Ward. The guy from Sparta. That's right....it's Jim Sparta week here on SLRJ. so rip a joint for this one...

Jim Ward is the real heart to the ATDI sound. he is the only guy who's been around besides the weird afro guy, but that guy only sings so what kind of musical input could he be putting in anyway(those lyrics are so gay anyway) i guess there was another weird afro dude but he's not on this one.

Anyway this record sucks. it's 3 songs and they are really lame. Cedric sounds like this big gay guy and jim ward's background vocals sound like a dude who spent most of his time inbetween classes at high school playing pokemon crystal with his gay friends. i can't imagine what kind of shitty taste in music these guys had at this point in their lives at like 19-20. if you listen to this EP anywhere outside of your comfortable house you will get made fun of.

It's only 3 songs long thank god! Nothing really bad on here, it's just a bunch of songs w/e

LOL

Oh, man, just got an advance copy of this joint from my college radio station. Predictably, it is the shit (gaze! LOL...) This latest record was years in the making and it shows because this record is definitely the lo-fi Omar Rodriguez-Lopez & John Frusciante. If you like elite underground music and understand that groups like Pink Reason are the realness and that fakeass Pitchfork shit like Dum Dum Girls and Radiohead and The Nightwatchman is for the lamedick poseurs then this is THE record for you, my fellow interstellar travelers...



MAY THE FORCE OF JERRY BE WITH YOU!!!

This is definitely the worst shit ever:
