This song begins with some spoken wordish lyrics a la 'Bushleaguer'
about insemination and getting a release.

I am growing more curious about sirens and what people mean by 80s power ballad. That sounds dismissive, but FON has some 80s elements like that and is one of my favorite post vitalogy songs

October album releases:

Pearl Jam

Paul McCartney
Justin Timberlake
Panic at the Disco
Lady Gaga
Katy Boobies
Miley Cyrus
Korn

Team, I don't think this big marketing push is gonna make much of a difference to anyone who wasn't gonna already buy this album.

I've got a feeling sirens is gonna have that same awful 80s solo that FoN has, or the same tone anyway.

So i quickly entered the studio and recorded a small preview. Just the verse melody.

Ok so this time the same melody now on guitar!
I really think it`s pretty close.

And hey it`s just what i had in my head this morning - just for fun!
Will be fun to compare it once the album is out.

Yeah. Stuff like 80s power ballad or cock rock doesn't put me off one bit. If it's a good song, it's a good song. I won't dislike it because it reminds people of a certain era. Most of PJ's output is reminiscent of classic rock but with darker themes. I don't see why they can't make a dark theme (supposing this is a heartbreak song) work with 80s power ballad music.

Lounge Lizard · Thu September 05, 2013 10:55 am

Why did they choose to name the album after a song though... I was gonna post something like "I want me some Lightning Bolt right now!" but then I thought if I did people might go "The song or the album?" and I would have to clarify.

So the running time is about 46 min. and full of the 3 minute songs, i was hoping for a bit longer album.

ps. could someone bother to provide me that soundcheck song :ph34r:
