yeah, I suppose that _Exile in Guyville_ by Liz Phair was the score of the decade as far as buying
cuz of reviews is concerned. Elliott Smith's disc is also really great. Oh, and Belle and Sebastian.
I don't own any yet, but my roommate has both the last two and a couple of ep's and he got them on
the basis of reviews. Does that count? If someone in your house does this? B & S are amazing as
well, btw...
