“Since Pavement Packed it in- smug self-absorbed slacker snobs everywhere have been without a band to call their own: to my fellow brothers and sisters I say look no farther than the Mendoza Line.” Pitchfork 7.8 - March 28 2000 On the 20th anniversary of the Brooklyn via Athens combo’s 3rd album the Mendoza Line’s “We Are All In This Alone” LP is one of NPR’s Best Reissues of the Year! Featuring a wildly oscillating mood storm of lo-fi rockers countrified folk-jams and electronic noise it’s the sound of a gifted group of young 20-somethings skating around the outside edges of sanity- the Mekons drinking all night with Fleetwood Mac. "We're All In This Alone" was a breakthrough for the band receiving wide acclaim in press outlets like Pitchfork the Village Voice and Spin and set the template for a run of albums and shows that is the stuff indie rock legends are made of.
