MCIS was released when I was about 6 years old and I was staying over at my cousin Steve’s house, he was about 17 at the time and a huge pumpkins fan. I had never heard anything by them at this point so Steve and I listened to the radio show ahead of the release and I was hooked. The next day Steve took me with him to get the album .On the ride back we listened to the album about 3 times and then sat in the driveway and listened to it again . When I left his house he had recorded me a copy (piracy is wrong but I was like 6 so cut me some slack I couldn’t get a job), I listened to that thing until no sound would come out of that maxwell tape and it would be the first album I ever bought with my own money a few years later. Anytime I hear that album it brings me back to my cousin’s house and sitting in the driveway hanging out with Steve.
