Re: Lightning Bolt - October 15
In fact, it's very likely that a song which was typical hard rock with these chords could end up sounding boring, cliched, like we'd heard it a million times before. The addition of the funk groove and the extra percussion might help it sound more striking in the end. Tremor Christ didn't ever rock out until much later in the song. Sounds like the same will happen here.

I just read the front page. I'm not sure why but I wasn't assuming this artwork to be anything to do with Lightning Bolt itself. Does anyone think it is?

Re: Lightning Bolt - October 15
Your post gave me a sarcastic laugh because you described what is my opinion of most Stone's songs since 10. This doesn't mean necessary bad or that i dislike every single song Stone wrote or co-wrote btw. It does imply that i cringe every time i read here that more Stone is the answer to all PJ problems though.harmless wrote:I was going to say, it could've easily become another Amongst the Waves.

The PJ 20 "back in theaters" thing is a dumb marketing effort.

The only way I can top that is if the next snippet ends up being described as Sleight of Hand meets The Black Eyed Peasharmless wrote:That was mightily eloquent, Heathen.

Re: Lightning Bolt - October 15
Was this one of the Jeff ones? I wondered if it might be Stone because other vignettes have their songwriters featured... I'm assuming.McParadigm wrote:Is this not written by Jeff?harmless wrote:I was going to say, it could've easily become another Amongst the Waves.
