    99? One of the most overrated records ever. Paved the way for pompous, angular, college rock that only holier-than-thou scenesters listened to. Over-mythologized just like Neutral Milk Hotel.

    It's as if this box set wants to prove Slint was human, not just a faceless menace that cut a record lost to time and circumstance, worthy of celebration and also fitting neatly in a box.

    It’s powerful stuff, still wholly worthy of “10 fucking stars”.

    The real beauty of all the context provided here for this batch of songs is not that it extols or magnifies, but that it humanizes.
