This song is awesome... just bought the re-issue of this album the other week & it's one of my top 3-4 fave tracks on the album...
Reminds me of so many bands that have come along over the past decade or so, playing a similar kind of sound but ending up sounding nowhere near as good as Jawbox themselves... a few local aussie bands i was into at the time kept going on about how influential these guys were on their music, and I can understand perfectly why. AWESOME shit. Infinite likes.
A radio DJ got in trouble by my urging her to play "Reel" on-air. The DJ complied, but the music director flipped her wig because, "the song isn't on the playlist". Just proves the point that radio doesn't embrace truly good music. Sorry to Amy Young wherever you are. I love this song! Thanks for posting.
Absolutely shit hot!! How have I just recently started hearing their stuff, it's a bloody crime they went unnoticed? Those last two albums (FYOSSweetheart and Jawbox) are as good as anything I've ever heard. It doesn't get any better for me!!!!!:-)
This is priceless footage...great band/song

I know this sounds bizarre, but I'd put Zach in my Top 25 Drummers Of All Time.

you got that right! Interesting music deserves interesting beats and Zach had them in spades! Good time and he hit nice & hard too.

I'm sure you could talk me into making you a copy of this show. Do you have any shows to trade? I'm sure we could work something out.
