Re: Swallowed Whole
Or look for the album with 'Disintegration' on it.

Re: Swallowed Whole
Just know that (and Spenno will disagree with me here, but) Disintegration is their greatest album. Their catalogue is wide and filled with all kinds of treasures, but I don't think they ever released anything as powerful, consistent or enduring as that album.

Is there even a song called that? I'm showing the gaps in my knowledge.

Cool, I'm not going mad then. Or I am, but for other reasons.

Pop Jam have still not written anything as good as "Friday I'm in Love".

Re: Swallowed Whole
Am I the first to point out that the production and style of this track make it really sound like an instrumental demo which Eddie put his fixins all over?
It has a great middle 8. If you take out the strumming you've got a song that musically sounds very similar to Force of Nature. I can see myself growing to liking this one more than the others if I can get past the repetition.
I want to see this on regular radio rotation because it has enough hooks in it to pull in the casual knownothings but something tells me they'll pick something like Getaway because it's more PJ signature.

Re: Swallowed Whole
It doesn't sound much like Force of Nature at all
LB sounds more like Unthought Known.

Re: Swallowed Whole
i don't think swallowed whole sounds much like either of them. FoN never even occurred to me so the next time I listen to it I'll try and spot that.

Re: Swallowed Whole
4.5 stars! (voted 4)
This one will be one of my favorites on the album.
After listening to it more than 15 times i am lovin' everything about it.
Has potential for a single. Great uplifting solo from Mike.

A montage from "A Bug's Life" plays in my head when I hear this song.
