Gigaton: Official album thread

[bodysnatcher]

They need to take a Radiohead-esque approach and switch up some instruments. I can see Mike on a bongo or synth or something. At least it would sound new/different.

That’s something a band that is prolifically writing music together might try. Not one that meets up every few years.

Jeff: "What if Stone and I traded, and Ed, you play drums"
Ed: "Did the Ramones do that?"
Jeff: "Not that I know of."
Ed: "Neither will we."

Stone: "What if...."
Ed: "Did the Ramones do it?"
Stone: ".............."

In the span of just 6 years, this band went from Ten to No Code.
That’s probably the biggest artistic lurch in all musical history. Or one of them.

They’ve more than done their part. Please stop asking for more.

Stop expecting it. You’re setting yourself up for disappointment

“Let’s just work on the songs we’re going to cover for the annual Lightning Bolt tour.”

[E.H. Ruddock]

not gonna lie, a few songs that aren't trying to shoehorn a Mike solo into them sounds pretty nice

[evenslow]

this is hilarious.

[evenslow]

They’re in the general vicinity of each other at least.

nah, i'm just assuming since 40% of them are in the same room together and that seems pretty rare

According to Ed's wife's Instagram account (don't ask) he has been in Seattle for at least a week or two. Surely his kids go to school?

I thought Jorge was taller?

[Sgt. Crackpot]

Fuck it. They need to fire Ed and hire Scott Stapp.

There, I said it. Come at me bros.

[LetMeSleep]

Fuck no, Sarge. Put down the pipe and clear your head, man.

[evenslow]

Fuck it. They need to fire Ed and hire Scott Stapp.

There, I said it. Come at me bros.

No doubt it's an offer he would accept

Spoiler: show

As for Pearl Jam, McCready says he hopes to work on something new with them soon. “We haven’t done anything since we were on the road last year,” he says. “I’m not sure what we’re doing. I’d love to do something, but I don’t have anything right now on the table. We just had a big touring year last year, and two giant shows in Seattle for a homeless benefit. And those were amazing and exhausting and exhilarating. When we all get back together, I’m sure we’ll be creating again. But I don’t have any timeline on that right now.”

"I got to actually go to his house and play at his studio, which was a total honor,” McCready tells Rolling Stone. “I actually sung a song there, which is terrifying to me"

Us too, Mike

Ed and glen have recorded 15 songs, 10 original and 5 covers.
I can’t wait for you guys to hear them. You’ll hate them but maybe not all of them.
