MP3: Fun - Sportscoat
When it came time to select bands for my first "Reader's companion" compilation, Fun was one of the few at the top of my list. They sound like Rapeman, so it's quite fitting that they're currently in Chicago at this very moment recording a new album with Steve Albini. Some of you might also note the brief "Kerosene" quote on the song I've posted today. Listen, there's a lot of bands that try to play this pigfuck style, but Fun is one of best. See them on tour:
