It isn’t even about skin with him. He’s clearly crushed the life out of a lot of songs and ideas over the last few records

Probably not. Jeff had to secretly get Pendulum recorded during the LB sessions.

At the very least the song would have faded out a lot earlier.

Hearing Stone talk about the creation of the song, it seems like it would have been "OK fellas, back to work" with B'OB.

I could do with more of Stone giving the origin stories of these new songs.

I’m sympathetic to the general sense of doom but this one is still good, 96.

I dunno I’ve seen them ruin sleight of hand live. And play it well.

The atmospheric songs often suffer live. I’m sure there’s a few big ones do too


Least we can be sure they won’t play this one too fast
