“The Bolt”?

Strat.

I actually do find this album to be much more enjoyable than the bolt. I still dont care for among the waves or unthought known but other than that its a pretty solid album. I love the last 4 song stretch.

Supersonic is also great. Though atrocious live.

they made the song about the Supersonics when played in Seattle and i heard the guy behind me groan

I've always enjoyed it!

Lightning bolt on the other hand feels like watered down pearl jam trying to regain some version of itself.

[VinylGuy]

Backspacer rules now. And everyone hates Binaural again.

[PHATJ]

Backspacer still sucks.

Except for Johnny Guitar

[E.H. Ruddock]

Is this the worst poster thread? Wtf is going on?

[PHATJ]

Except for Johnny Guitar

That one is pretty good. And I’m the one person that likes Amongst the Waves. Everything else is shit.

Amongst The Waves is a PJ song with a photo filter applied to it

Great analogy

it starts out promising but loses steam quickly. Ed sounds like hes got a cold

Also, while Johnny Guitar and Force of Nature are nice songs the intros are very lazy

I've never hated BS but I've never loved it either.

What is happening

hold me

[Sgt. Crackpot]

Reissue just announced.

[bodysnatcher]

The reissue is going to be so compressed only dogs can hear it

[verb_to_trust]

They could be cool about a Backspacer reissue and give us that disc of b sides Mike always talked about. I'm sure instead it would be some BOB alternate takes with special Tom Tomorrow artwork.

[Jeez]

Can’t wait for a month of celebrations for Lightning Bolt. We’re closer than we think...

The ‘Fixer’ is the exact moment they expired as a creative expression. This said, ‘Just Breathe’ is a song which in my experience when played to non Pearl Jam lovers, unites people in melancholy. Truly lovely and rare.
