Gigaton: Official album thread

[McParadigm]

Pearl Jam will definitely make another record and also a new producer would make them care and do a good job

[RAG319]

Does BOB even do anything in the studio except be a Yes Man for Ed?

[RAG319]

Dave Fridmann would be cool but the only good shit he's done the last few years have been the Spoon records.

[RAG319]

Fuck it, at this point I'd be down for a Rick Rubin Pearl Jam record.

* piano intros, outros, and solos
* hand claps

Solos? Is this a Billy Corgan sitch I'm unaware of? Does BOB rerecord all of Mike's solos when they leave for the night?

Pump up Ed really loud in the mix and drown out the rest.

[Anders]

A new producer would be great. Hopefully an inprovement.

I'd love it if they brought back Tchad Blake for the next one.

[Anders]

I agree.

[verb_to_trust]

Didn't they pretty much quit on Blake's vision for Binaural and go running back to Bob? Why would he want to work with these chumps again?

[guestT]

Yup.

I have mixed feelings about that record. I think it's a good record but in hindsight I don't think I was a great choice for the band. We didn't see eye to eye on many things sonically and we all got a bit frustrated in the making of the music but we persevered and managed to make it work. Brendon O'brien came on board to mix and helped make sense of it all.

This is exactly why he needs to be brought back.

[Norah]

Guys, a new producer isn't going to fix this.

Shhh.

Let them be children just a little while longer.

[Sgt. Crackpot]

They need someone that's not going to suck their dicks.

[Jeez]

That’s going to be difficult when the ‘star’ of the band has allowed a long line of cock suckers to indulge his love of a metaphorical BJ.

I love what they were but they’ve been nothing like this for since Roskilde, and that’s understandable
