Patrick Stickles really, really, really cares that you 'get' what it is he's trying to say. The Titus Andronicus frontman's vocal - wobbling somewhere between wry and weary Paul Westerberg and Conor Oberst's tantrum tones - navigates a thrilling, fickle register; dramatic ups and downs anathema to traditional hipster deadpan schlock, guitars too jaunty and hyped for irony. This prime slab of post-ironic hardcore, recorded live at the band's New Jersey rehearsal room last month, showcases the quintet at their most ramshackle and boozed, sounding barely held together as a teen movie frat party unfurls around them.
