Take the Long Way rules. You guys need to take in some Cavedweller and bow at the alter of Matt Cameron. That one could have come right off of Cavedweller. Good stuff.

Is this all because The Rise of Skywalker was such a complete mess?

Re: The Official GIGATON Thread
he said he heard it ahead of time and that we'd all see it basically sucked. we decided differently. so now he's holding strong to his original opinion by using Never Destination and Take the Long Way as his straw men for keeping the house of cards going.dimejinky99 wrote:Strat wrote:Dime.

Trying to pace myself with this. Just finished my third complete listen.
It's pretty remarkable that Quick Escape and Comes Then Goes can be cornerstones on the same album. What a showcase for the wide spectrum of talent these guys still possess.

Re: The Official GIGATON Thread
I’ve always done that while I listen to albums. I also take notes on songs the first few times I listen to them. I want to remember my initial reactions while I digest the song and my opinions develop. Anyway, I listened to all the songs while reading the lyrics for the first time tonight, and that was the reaction I had.theplatypus wrote:Why did you write it downPHATJ wrote:Leatherhead wrote:Nice handwriting.PHATJ wrote:
