The riff in MYM.
What is that? Are those guitars?
Is that the 'guitar' effect on a synthesizer?
Why are the stops so clean?

Put on a mediocre Youtube soundclip of 'Ace of Spades' and you can hear guitars playing.
Back to 'lossless' MYM - and it doesn't even compare.
Even LTRP has more convincing guitars than MYM, and that's not quite right. I don't have so much problem with the stops, that's been a feature of punk for ages.
10,000 :hooray:

or is that :facepalm:

thank you, I like that one.

I was disappointed the 8 to 10k rank didn't get more love.

Congratulations! Your complete lack of sleep and total devotion to Lightning Bolt speculation has led you to where no man has gone before. You're like the Ferdinand Magellan of RM.

I was wondering why this was happening.

This will make me even less popular than I am, someone fix it.

If it's indeed Pearl Jam I'm guessing Yellow Moon or SBM.

Whatever it is, I think I'm going to like it. I hope it's SBM and that I'll be wondering what people who don't like it are smoking.
