Tangents include sports, Say Anything, and whether Gorillaz are good or not.

We did an episode on The Dismemberment Plan! In classic 'Scroll fashion, two of us weren't familiar with this band and the other two are longtime fans. We talk about their classic albums, what makes them so beloved, how a band as odd as them became indie-rock icons, and why some of us find them so goddamn irritating.
