I wish Getaway and Lightning Bolt could both be eliminated.

that's a pretty solid final 3. The only change I would make is to swap out Pendulum with SBM


also, getaway was eliminated

Pendulum is a fantastic, unique song. Really stands out among the last three or four albums. One of the more recent songs that actually sounds like a PJ song. Great lyrics, great sound. You guys don't know what you're talking about. :gomez:

It's a dull, by-numbers attempt at an interesting Pearl Jam song. Ed's vocals and lyrics feel totally contrived.

I might not like it quite as much as you, but I like it a lot more than 90% of the stuff from the last decade plus.

Frankly, it’s not possible for a song like Pendulum to work when the production makes it sound like a sheet of aluminum foil.

Pendulum is bad even by Lightning Bolt standards. It sounds like such a calculated attempt at being moody.
I don't even mind the album that much but this top 3 sucks. LB is my favorite of these and will probably leave next round.

Well excuse me for trying to find a rose within the horrid, thorny weeds. :cry:

I've found good stuff in every single PJ album. Ya'll jaded. :shake:
