Yes yes yes! I love both of these records. I liked much harder music from the Dischord catalogue when the Smart Went Crazy came out so I overlooked it for many years. Through "prison song" I became familiar with "Lifestyle" by Beauty Pill and decided to see if there was anything to SWC. Sure enough, so much of that wit and edge was there years ago. "Now We're Even" isn't as good but "Con Art" and "The Unsustainable Lifestyle" are two of the best records I've heard and they will continue to be long after the stuff I overlooked them for seems stale and dated.
