...Is generation X-wing about Star Wars?

"Generation X-Wing"

Venus was a fly trap
The man you loved devoured
I used to dream about your sister
Standing in the shower
But I was never cool
You thought I was a cowboy
I wonder where my gun is
Can you spare a bullet senorita

I will always be the worst

Generation X-wing
That's got to be the death star
I used to dream about the future
I used to dream about a lot of things
But I was never cool
So you can call me loser
Yeah you can call me anything
You want to senorita

I will always be the worst

Help me up with
A pair of wings
A little rope
All those things
She always said I'd find the cure for cancer
I read my horoscope but I just can't pull it off alone

Venus was a fly trap
The man you loved devoured
I used to dream about your sister
Fucking me in the shower
But I was never cool
So you can call me loser
Yeah you can call me anything
You want to senorita

I will always be the worst

So... a feel-good hit?

What's the best Matt Good album available ? I need something as a starting point.

Beautiful Midnight is very good. Avalanche if you want something more mellow. Those are the only two I own, so I can't really offer my opinion on the others, but any one would probably be an okay bet. He hasn't really ever released a bad album.

I didn't think White Light was all that great, but it doesn't fall into the Bad category...

Personally, of the albums I own, I'd reccomend the Audio of Being. It's one of the best albums I have ever had the pleasure of listening to. It's probably a notch below Avalanche, but it has 3 or 4 terrific songs and all the singles and videos from the album are tremendous as well.

Avalanche is a bit darker, and you might enjoy it more. Up to you.

I just downloaded 'Underdogs' because it's the only thing I could find on Soulseek. Haven't quite listened to it yet, but how does it rank ?

Well, the MGB discography goes like this..

Last of the Ghetto Astronauts
Underdogs
Beautiful Mignight
Audio of Being

Last of the Ghetto Astronauts is very... different, from everything they did. Underdogs is basically their first album, and is probably their most radio friendly, with lots of singles and lots of commercial style rock. There are a lot of good tracks on it... and if mine wasn't scratched to ratshit, I'd still listen to it often, as there is a lot to find in there.

But I don't think it's one of their better albums.

Audio of Being has Tripoli on it . . . Tripoli rules.

This is the order you should listen in:

Audio of Being
Avalanche
Beautiful Midnight
Last of the Ghetto Astronauts
Underdogs

I would love a copy of In A Coma but I don't have a Visa/Mastercard/whatever :(
