Yeah that might have been the most insane thing I've ever read on this entire board

And I read all of harmless's posts
Wow. With this board, that's saying something.

I think I was as surprised as anybody. I thought the album version was unlistenable.

The last song on Lightning Bolt is Yellow Moon. Not sure what all of you are talking about.

Let's stay on topic. Not necessarily enjoyable, but definitely a top-notch quality release from a band who's been around as long as Pearl Jam. And my argument is that the difference is effort. Because we know Pearl Jam has it in 'em, which makes it that much more insulting.
Do we know they have it in them, though? The last good thing I've heard is Cold Confession/Let it Ride, and weren't they from ST sessions?
you're right they don't

It's not even smart, though.

It's just aggressively dumb.

Real "hurr hurr"-level material.

How was s/t more of a money grab than riot act?
I pledge to be 100% boring and never troll-out again. I will make my interactions here pleasant, like sitting through an agricultural economics class.

Everyone in their right minds love RA tons more than S/T but how is s/t more of a money grab? S/t wasnt much of a money grab reall, was it? Green Disease is even more in that direction than Gone, slightly anyway?

I go back and forth on these two.

I’m very fond of the high points of both and would be happy to never hear their respective low points again.

Truth be told....I think I’m more fond of the honest approach and warm production of Riot Act than the actual songwriting.
There's the dog. You can't fake that stuff. Confess with your mouth.
