Trouble is, you don't know it when you go in. So in a way, it's a perfect metaphor for late Pearl Jam... huh guys?

Matt doesn't use chords, just beats

The idea of SBM pretty much as the uke version but with band doing a shuffle, sounds fucking awful.

So that now brings my hope down to 8 remaining songs. Still hopeful.

I read it because I was expecting Amsterdam to come through with fireworks. Big sweeping reviews. Instead I got people pissing and moaning about Matt, SBM, Couching Eddie Hidden Dragon, and a guy butchering Sirens after hearing it one time. It was easily the least fulfilling read of my lifetime.
