Lightning Bolt: the official album thread

Yeah it does sound good.

Arg, this is so frustrating.

Maybe BoB is the "Lightning Bolt". He lights up the skies, creates stunning images, but ultimately can leave a path of danger, destruction, and death.

Guys, if this song is really good imagine how much better pendulum is gonna be!

What makes you so excited about Pendulum? I mean, not that you're wrong, I was just wondering which bit of the descriptions makes you excited about it. I like the sound of the Matt stuff.

The tour video has me going and the reviews have been nothing but positive. I love all of the songs we've heard so far, I mean really love them, but I wholly expect Pendulum to be my favorite.

me too, and I've said some pretty ridiculous things about the song lightning bolt already. I am running out of hyperbole

I just work under the assumption that things that sound really good will be really good.

The "Infallible" clip might be my favorite 56 seconds of music I've heard from this album.

Have you forgotten about the Verizon clips?

This is longer than the Verizon clips, no?

those largely played out according to my expectations. I also think you can judge a lot more from 20 seconds of what is presumably high quality audio over 12 seconds of ring tone.

It absolutely is.

Someone needs to publish the Infallible lyrics.

[stip]

I wasn't enough for you
To abandon everything.
I've realized that the
Situation was out of control.
Without a shadow of a doubt
The decision was to leave.

I'm better off knowing
That it wouldn't last.
If I seem fine it's cause I am.

Whoa.
This was the first time,
The first time I felt sure.
Whoa.
This is the last time,
The last time you'll hear from me.

Step back and take a deep breath in
Cause you know that you're better off.
These circumstances allowed me
To call it quits then we'll call it even.

I'm better off knowing
That it wouldn't last.
If I seem fine it's cause I am.

Whoa.
This was the first time,
The first time I felt sure.
Whoa.
This is the last time,
the last time you'll hear from me.

I'm better off knowing
That it wouldn't last
(Without saying a word
I can't change the fact
that its over)
There's no point in reflecting on the past
If I seem fine it's cause I am.

Whoa.
This was the first time,
The first time I felt sure.
Whoa.
This is the last time,
the last time you'll hear from me.
Whoa.
This was the first time,
The first time I felt sure.
Whoa.
This is the last time,
the last time you'll hear from me.

[Thejambi]

Just listened on my computer.
Dat bass.

or possibly

These scars are all you know
These scars are all you know
These scars are all you know
These scars are all you know

Released and pure and well on the way
Catching stride, piercing the blank
Through the blur answers are found
Grasping hold of dreams through a sound
The weary heart will set in
The tired mind will infest
And all that was will be no more
This urgency was killing all miracles that surfaced
Now all that's staring back is the blank
Postured with pride

The solution is all you want

Visions split dividing what's done (what's done)
Collective thoughts bring all into one
Reassemble, reunite
Playing god once again
Who understands the patience of creativity
Under the empty and past the stare
Will the precious light of reality fade away
And reveal the soft underbelly of the moment
A glimpse at the answer to why

The solution is all you want
But the process is just too much

Damnit, I'm sick of being stuck
In the blindside of impatience
Will someone clear the air so I can breathe
Filter the failing notion
Puncture the space of absent thought
And create life

So now respond and play the game
Just one more time, it won't be the same
Patience now strong breaks the way
Don't fear, just be, be free
Even though these scars are all you know
These scars are all you know

All YOU KNOW
ALL YOU KNOW
ALL YOU KNOW

[stip]

I wonder if anyone read through both of those before getting to this post and learning that those are songs called infallible by other bands.

No "Wooooahhh I'm infallible?"

I'm disappointed. RIP PJ

Good points. I think PJ have done things so much better this time around, rather than sticking their proverbial cocks in commercial entities such as Target and Verizon. They've done this on their own and have given us so much more to digest. It's almost as if they're trying to help prevent us from listening to leaks.

this has actually been a pretty excellent album roll out. Next time we should withhold judgement until we get closer


we won't, but we should

No, that first month was awful.

I'm not judgemental though.
