i have had The Fixer in my head all day, and like it; in part because it is actually so much better than CDM

thanks Pearl Jam!

It’s got some perfectly mid-tier songs on it, a lusher sound than the records around it, a bunch of corn (“one man stands alone, awaiting” is only a lyric if you are Dio), an 80’s leotard exercise track that woulda made a great Weird Al food song in its day, and it doesn’t last very long.

AMAZING.

You know how I said there was I couple of tracks I didn't quite connect with yet?

Forget I said that, this album is spectacularly brilliant.

If Backspacer was a woman, I'd want to be a polygamist.

I have NO criticism. None.
Do you have a file somewhere where you save quotes you'll want to use later?

Most empirical data point to Lightning Bolt being the superior album, compared to Backspacer.
