Lightning Bolt: the official album thread

[stip]

let the record play is the song they were trying to write with supersonic and probably big wave. They finally got it right

The Doug Getway was nearly spot on. That's so fucking awesome hahah.

And the funny thing is, I think it lacks a whistling solo.

It's pretty different from both those songs though

I won't be checking my inbox for requests, folks, sorry.

Yeah was pretty crazy after the listening party i couldn`t remember anything and then i woke up and had this melody in my head.
Probably a sign that this would do good on the radio as well.

The other artist that uses keys is Mariah Carey.

probably bon jovi too

[Tuolumne]

calling it now, album of the year, will shift 10+ million copies.

pearl jam is back. this ain't your mommas pearl jam.

Slow your roll there a bit, even the Gagas and Katy Perry's of the world struggle to sell a million these days . This ain't the 90s. . . . .

Lol. So 90s. A successful album these days sells 500,000 and a smash is 1 million. It's more like back in the 50s now.

The mashup would probably make my year, if they can be synced at the right point.

Did you mean Celine Dion?

Probably, but that's debatable because the guitars mean you can hardly hear the keys. Damn, when I said Mariah Carey I was forgetting Whitney Houston!

There are... a few of them, to be honest, aren't there.

[wilkins]

I am about to listen to them, my impressions may be tainted by the amazing music I've been hearing at the Harvest Jazz and Blues Festival.

So, where did these come from?

musically sure. I meant thematically. I could be wrong, too

Let The Records Play is bad....the others are ok.

Let the Records Play

when the kingdom comes he puts the records on and with his blistered thumb hits play
and with the volume up he goes and fills his cup and lets the drummer drum take away
the pain
the pain

breaking
foresaken
what’s that you’re taken
???? (believing) the feeling
he lets the records play

??? future dim
The cigarette light’s in
the vaporizer green light grim
and when the shot glass talks he goes to listens up
until he’s nice and numb again
again

shaken
the breaking
not one for faking
the reeling (???) is healing
he lets the records play
there’s wisdom in his ways

I’ve been down and I fell so hard and far from grace
I’ve been hurt and I still recall the flaws on her face
I’ve been off but ???? my feet
my feet again

shaken
foresaken
what’s that you’re taking
the weeding
the feeling
he lets the records play

shaken
but breaking
not one for faking
the reeling is healing
he lets the records play
there’s wisdom in his ways

I think "Getaway" is terrible, "LTRP" and "LB" are bland and boring, and "Swallowed Whole" is good.

[harmless]

The shaker and tambourine, along with the angular guitar riff, in the 'Lightning Bolt' chorus really help it feel *groovy* instead of embarrassing. And the fact that Eddie sings it in time helps too. When it all syncs together it's got swag.
