I'd say Yield or No Code would be the closest comparisons album-wisemikejasond wrote:I don't want the album, I will wait until March 27th
All I want to know is...how does it compare to S/T, Backspacer, and Lightning Bolt? And how would it compare to somebody who thinks those above descend in quality, hates binaural/riot act, loves the first four albums, and thinks S/T is top five material along with them?

the person who said "Retrograde" is cheesier than Sirens was wrong; it doesn't try to rise to those bombastic heights, which is more like older don't-overdo-it Pearl Jam

Its hands down better than Backspacer and Lightning Bolt....i'll need more listens to say if its better than S/T but this is a VERY worthy album so far (2/3 thru).mikejasond wrote:I don't want the album, I will wait until March 27th

Another longtime lurker/fan who had to create a new account earlier this year because I couldn't figure out old login. Would love a PM if someone can find it in their heart. Will pay it forward.
