Rotted Mood I bought this on LP when it came out and it blew me away. So I bought a cd so I could stop playing my LP and my cd got stolen during a party at my house. So I just played my LP since. But it’s time I rebought this, at least MP3s. I’ve never stopped listening to this since it came out and I probably won’t stop until I’m in my own casket. The one time I saw him play was unforgettable. RIP Jay. Favorite track: Death Is Forming.

Whether it was an interview, album promo, or whatever, he was just himself. That Elzo Durt art tribute silkscreen on the front of Carrion Crawler/The Dream by Thee Oh Sees is somehow not sold out on Elzo's shop btw. Favorite track: My Family.

about

Jay Reatard’s reputation was to smash disco balls and get in on-stage fights—the kind of guy who tried to make people laugh by shooting bottle rockets out his ass. As wild and ridiculous as he was, he took his music seriously.

The album is a portrait of a moony-eyed murderer. As a boy, he starts attacking his own family. When he falls in love, he lurks in the shadows and watches her from afar. "I won't stop until you're dead,/ because of voices in my head," he sings on "Fading All Away." This is the stuff of horror movies—love that leads to obsession, graduates to stalking, and culminates in murder. It's a narrative framed perfectly by his performance. -Evan Minsker of Pitchfork 9.1/10
