I have actually acknowledged, time and time again, that I'm sure PJ are perfectly happy with everything to do with BO'B. I just don't mind acknowledging that I'm not. And yeah, seriously, let's just leave it there and stop policing opinions.

I couldn't resist.

But either the songs are good or they aren't. It's not his fault but the songwriter. I'll leave it alone now.

I learned that the audiophile version of Hesitation Marks is slightly more dynamic and a touch quieter but it is quite underwhelming in its differences.

Pearl Jam has had three really good drummers. If we made a list of the top 10 drummers in a rock band in the last 25 years how many would be on the list.

You'd have thought they could've added a few lasers, huh? The genre seems conducive to that.

Good news guys, BOB says the band only calls him when they are ready to do something "outgoing and significant". So that means this album is going to be better than Binaural and RA. GREAT NEWS!!!!

"The pros are, when they’re ready to do something a little more outgoing, significant – whatever you want to call it, that’s what I call it, I can’t help myself! – they call me again." -BOB
Spoiler: show
Seriously, fuck this guy

Okay I see now where this is going. I bet he means they work by themself as a band then he comes in to put some fixin. Like a foreman they hammer it out together as a band while he is stipping a wife or going to a strip club with Nikki Six. Then they call ah uh I think we got it.
