Comment:

As the AOTM canon grows ever larger, I feel extra pressure to reinvent the wheel. For example, Dave the Shoegazer and his Slo-Core mixes showcase The Catherine Wheel, and I think "Phantom of the American Mother" shows up a couple of times. So *my* inclusion looks a tad dinky, in comparison. Unless, of course, someone's day was made by seeing "Brickfield Nights" or "Qu'ran" on a mix tape. You just can't predict how your babies are gonna look in other peoples' eyes.
