Between the Tony Hawk cameo in the music video and its massive 2020 TikTok revival, this track refused to die.

"Fuck Forever"
2005
from the album The Ritual
Briefly, I threw some of my favorite Meat Puppets songs on a playlist - that isn't to say there's not songs on MANY of their other LPs and EPs I love, but there's nothing before 1989 here. These are my Meat Puppets go-to LPs. To me, all perfect but one, which is close. In chronological order,
*Monsters (perfect)
*Forbidden Places (perfect)
*Too High to Die (perfect)
*No Joke! (perfect minus a song or two I don't like)
*Sewn Together (perfect)
*Lollipop (perfect)
*Rat Farm (perfect)
*Dusty Notes (perfect)
And this is a 17 song playlist with a lot of my favorites, too - pretty much all from those albums: https://youtu.be/ZLAnAnXziok
