SBM is a great song.

Yup. I'm really scared to see what could happen when it gets the full band treatment though. Could go either way.harmless wrote:SBM is a great song.

I think they could get it right with the guitars, but in my mind the rhythm is quite specific so Matt has exactly 1 ways of getting it right. Or 2, tops. That makes me nervous.HardTI wrote:Yup.

All I know is it better be fucking great for them to include it on the album. Much higher bar than the rest of the songs.harmless wrote:I think they could get it right with the guitars, but in my mind the rhythm is quite specific so Matt has exactly 1 ways of getting it right.

Re: Lightning Bolt - October 15
Well, I guess its potential for greatness will depend on how much you like the song... but other than that, I think they could do it. I've grown to really like MYM manners a lot. I think there's reasonable hope for a similar thing on other songs. I doubt they're wanting the single standout track to be MYM. There were highlights on Backspacer, but none of them were as good as MYM I don't think; or rather, none of them grew on me that much.evenslow wrote:All I know is it better be fucking great for them to include it on the album.

Re: Lightning Bolt - October 15
I'm pretty interested in seeing how they're going to flesh the song out. I don't think they're gonna keep it that short.

Re: Lightning Bolt - October 15
The other song I would like to see them flesh out is Light Today. But we'll see.

Re: Lightning Bolt - October 15
A friend of mine just told me that "Setting Forth" will be on the album. I have no idea how he'd know, so I'm not buying it yet.

Yes, you're right it does. It's possibly meant to be a visual pun on gun chamber / space capsule.iam76 wrote:Apollo ?nikull wrote:Well...

Re: Lightning Bolt - October 15
I'm doing this in two threads because everyone else is. Clearly the other thread is the most appropriate.
