liked that one

Yeah, agreed.

It starts off with the right tone: "Admit it, you were worried about this one, right?"

Yeah the writer definitely knows their audience.

If you’re a super fan, Gigaton is packed with Easter Eggs. On “Never Destination,” Vedder references the protagonist of Sean Penn’s book Bob Honey Who Just Do Stuff.

why god why.

Wait...did he say Cameron sings on Take the Long Way? That can’t be right.

[JuanHamm]

That we be cool. I really like Matt's voice.

[Birds in Hell]

It definitely would've been reported earlier than now if other band members took lead vocals on some of the songs.

[Ms Harmless]

yep, I think he does right to point out that they lost their way with the last two albums

LEAK THE GIGATON, FUCKERS

I’ve already come to terms that that song is likely the low point of the album.
why god why.

That really surprised me.

[Ms Harmless]

eh, if it's just a name drop of a fictional character I can live with it

it's far more embarrassing that Ed has been friends with a wife beater all these years

Guess maybe he has some prominent background vocals?

[evenslow]

the spin review is very encouraging.

[scrub12]

All the reviews have been pretty positive. Good news so far.

Are late night shows even still happening with the Coronavirus? I expected them to do at least one but everything seems to be cancelled or postponed.

[Strat]

No code and yield ?

Hell yes. I’m in.

[Ms Harmless]

if this record begins strongly and ends strongly, I'm automatically much more inclined to spend more time letting the rest grow on me

He also says the album features the first female backing vocals of any PJ track, so he's not entirely reliable.

That one was actually confirmed by a few other places.

Other vocals, not so much.

Well, an official album track anyway.

Official PJ album yeah. Sweet Relief was an official album tho. I really am being horribly pedantic. Apologies.
