So the thing with Interbabe Concern is this: Scott Miller is full of shit, poisonously bitter, and in the grip of at least one really nasty misogynistic micro-ideology, but he knows it and he hates it and is capturing himself in the process of struggling to become anything but that. It's a record about ugly self-pity in context as part of a larger process, looking in at it and out from it at the same time, and that's fascinating and affecting.

(And how the push and pull of the content is mirrored by the push and pull of the form, etc. etc., I'm not getting myself started about this record. It's not even my favorite of theirs, but this comes up because I just put it on, got blindsided by one of the more odious bits, and was musing for a second about how much I love it anyway.)
