I don't like when they open with this. I don't like when they open with anything new honestly besides Pendulum.

This song builds up to something pretty neat and then just goes absolutely nowhere with it. The second verse isn't long enough to build back to it again. This along with Amongst the Waves really bring the album down IMO.

I agree with this honestly. I do like Amongst the Waves but they are a bit of a stall on the album with so much momentum. I don't think its a bad song though. And some parts of it are great. I can agree the structure could lead to something better and live Im not a big fan of either song. They don't bother me on the album

There are some nice moments in this song but overall it's really bad.

I remember when this album came out and everybody was like, "OMG! Unthought Known is best PJ song ever! Masterpiece!"

I thought they were retarded then, and I still do.

one thing that really annoys me about this song is the way eddie started to sing the word "left" in the "nothing left" part of the chorus. he added a second syllable (leh-eft), and it sounds stupid.

that mix on the fan backspacer edit was a huge improvement. Bumps this up from a 3 to 4 star song.

I really like the music and vocal melody but the lyrics themselves are not that good.

Worst song on Backspacer. For some reason the "gems and rhinestones" line really annoys me.
