This band

I said this in the bitching thread:

'I've listened to the two new b-sides. I obviously love them and am baffled that they still play this stuff, at home, in private, but decide that nobody is going to want to hear it. I can't fathom it. My favourite band in the word have not lost their talent. They are simply deluded now.'

Yeah they're not lazy/crap, they're stupid.

Does Cold Confessionremind anyone else of Other Side?

Reminds me of comeback but obviously better, it has an old school blues/soul thing going on

The music also reminds of a stone song, but i cant remember which one since i dont listen to his solo stuff all that much.Might just be the grooove.

Nice songs. Let It Ride is 100% b side material. CC is neat but its basically a structured improve. 6 mins of a verse. When it starts to get really good in the last few seconds it fades out. Pretty cool though.

[WtOB?]

Cold Confession is the jazziest this band has ever gone.

[harmless]

They're both absolutely A-side material for latter-day PJ. If we get anything like this level of song on LB, I'll be very surprised. What I do know is that if we do, it won't be the filler.

[WtOB?]

I really wanna hear Navy Bean now.

if anything, i feel a whole lot better knowing that this band still exists somewhere beneath all the polish and yeah-yeah-yeahs of the last few years.

[Revelator]

So pissed I can't listen to these at work. Everyone's descriptions have me pretty anxious to hear them. I just hope the CC comparisons to Other Side are not true. Other Side is one of the very few PJ songs I really don't care for. Judging by the descriptions, CC sounds more interesting....

I hate to break it to you, but this was still 8 or 9 years ago.

It's nothing like otherside

Well, 8-9 years ago is also a period where many people felt PJ were already dying....

I think it's Mike's guitar tone that made me think that. Its a slow burner, but it plods along much better than Other Side.

These songs prove that PJ could bring this still if they wanted to. They don't. They want to make an accessible pop song now which makes the crowd go 'wild' and which Brendan O'Brien has spit-and-polished. That's what they want to do, and Ed gets pissed off when crowds don't respond well to it.

I really don't know what's Otherside-ish about CC

[Dr. Van Nostrand]

Cc is quite good

damn right it is

Are you still master, Doc?

Its maddening and somewhat insulting.

[Revelator]

I'm convinced these were leaked to prove some kind of point.

Ha I couldn't help but think the same. The timing is so strange, but hey I'll take it. I have to fucking wait until tonight to listen to these 2 though, dammit

[Lounge Lizard]

Just gave LB another listen on Youtube. It's ridiculously up-beat. The riff literally makes me cringe. This is supposedly some sort of iteration of 'Unthought Known' except that was an OK song...
