i haven't listened to this album in a long time. i just pulled it up on spotify to give it a listen, looked at the tracklist, and just couldn't.


i want Got Some to be my favorite song in this thing, but it's neutered to hell and back. it's like listening to a song through a tin can telephone.

Pussy. Play it. It’s awesome

Let’s be adults and be honest enough to go yknow I’ve changed my mind. This is doing something else for me now.

If it doesn’t fair enough. If you don’t try because the tracklist? Seriously

I'm pretty sure I found out about this from here but time is cyclical so why not bring it back around. There's a remix of sorts of Backspacer that someone did using the stems from Rock Band, and it's not bad. Granted I like the album a lot more than any of you do so take that into account. I think you can find it on tpb or something similar.

I did change my mind — like an adult. I used to like it.

GSMF and Johnny Guitar are the only two I can tolerate from this album.

The good news is that Lightning Bolt was better than Backspacer, so maybe the new album will be S/T-esque?

Backspacer is objectively better than lighting bolt.
LB has its moments but nothing like as cohesive or interesting or just good as backsapcer

100%.

Backspacer is about as far above Lightning Bolt as Yield is above Backspacer.

Lightning Bolt is the infinitely better album and it's not even close.
