I don't know! But no one else is saying post-Waters either, they're just saying "It doesn't sound like Pink Floyd" and I'm like yes it does.McParadigm wrote:Post-Waters!harmless wrote:Pink Floyd was part of 80s rock and has all of the same features except for some cool unusual ones as well.

At what point of the song will all the 8th graders try to feel up their girlfriends during the dance?

Re: New Song (9.19.13): Sirens
I think that it does kinda sound like the Fake Floyd that put out Momentary Lapse and Division Bell. The opening riffs and solo sound very Division Bellishdarth_vedder wrote:We have different takes on what we think about Pink Floyd. I'm not getting that at all, not even a little bit.

Probably the point where Matt accidentally fucks up the intro. "Oops! Touched your boob, sorry."

Re: New Song (9.19.13): Sirens
I expect to hear this song on Parenthood.
They've played a uke song, Wishlist and Supersonic.
Great show but questionable taste in their PJ selections.

"If you pre-ordered "Lightning Bolt" at pearljam.com, go to MY ACCOUNT>ORDER HISTORY>VIEW your Lightning Bolt order and click Mind Your Manners-Sirens in your desired format."
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

Just did this now: go into your order history, click on your Lightning Bolt pre-order and you should see download links in various formats for a folder that contains both Mind Your Manners and Sirens.gems and rhinestones wrote:Where is this free download.

Re: New Song (9.19.13): Sirens
Certainly not my type of Pearl Jam song. But surprised that i wasn't bothered by it like i thought i would. It's pretty and Ed isn't cringeworthy, he's actually very good. I should hate this song more than i do. That being said, it sounds very dated and I'm not really into it. I will definitely take a piss break during this at a show, but the same could be said for Betterman.

Yeah, but where is this a free download other than where it's free because you already paid for the goddamn thing?
