Lightning Bolt: the official album thread

[KurtLeon]

I loved this!
Remind me a bit of Vitalogy and Binaural and cheese (and I love cheese)
maybe my favorite of the album so far.

[Oh, Jimmy]

I keep seeing people say Sirens is gonna be huge. Am I the only one that thinks that at this stage in the game, the best PJ can hope for is a fluke hit like Last Kiss or Just Breathe? They've been the best at getting an intentional big hit, especially this century.

I would think revoking forum "privileges" is far more likely than outright de-activation of membership.

Can we snake in a mole behind the lines?

[harmless]

I think Stip is going to shit when he hears this.

I honestly can't wait for Stip's reaction.

It could be big with middle aged people.

I think this song *could* be huge if it was by anyone else but PJ.

Just Breathe was not a "fluke" hit. It was a properly released second single that was promoted well. Also, catchy.

Some people have been saying that for every single since Yield.

[sward]

My best piece of advice for this song if you are unsure is keep playing it. I'm even starting to like the solo!

Awesome song. Can someone repost the lyrics that I saw a bunch of pages ago? I can't seem to find it.

Have you seen the kind of people into Pink Floyd?

[Mirella]

So, there's quite a bit of Death in this album, then. It's like they took the song 'The End' and said 'Oh wait...' and now we have the afterlife.

I know this album is not for just me, or about me, but here is another parallel with my life. I am older now than my mother when she died. People who have lost a parent, have this strange change in their way of thinking, that makes them think they will never make it past that age either. Then, when you cross that line, suddenly a new 'life' sort of starts. There is even a possibility of getting old. Let's just hope this counts for the band as well.

groetjes,

He's been masturbating for the past 3 hours.

And with 20-year-old girls. And with me.

Exactly. In a non backhanded compliment sort of way, my mum will love this song.

[ledvedderman]

so, ummmm...anyone got any gum they'd share in a PM

Yep, just keep forcing it on yourself. It totally gets there.

check the sirens thread, page 5. it needs a few corrections though

[Lounge Lizard]

Looks like when LB hits the shelves, BS will fade into bolivia.
Other than Johnny Guitar, i see no other song that could survive the beating that LB is going to dish out.

The song speaks to me as well, for a bunch of reasons. I have something in my eye, hang on.
