When a band is but a fraction of Pearl Jam, but they aren't zero Pearl Jam.

Yes sets the right tone.

What's that that someone is screaming in the background right at the end of the song? Can't make it out.
Sounds like stevie saying "again"

The Haves chorus reminds me a bit of Parachutes.

I jump from humming one melody to the other as I go about my day. It’s really something. Every song

Just finished listening to that, and, the whole time, I was just wishing he'd actually ask a question instead of trying to "hang." Very needy dude.
I was not familiar with this dude and I hope I never come across him again.

I know I keep hammering on about the dark but …


Ed’s playing in that is so good. The breakdown moments when you can hear just him banging away on that acoustic guitar …..I love it. It’s so unique. The song is three chords (other than bridge ) but the way he plays it is so not poppy….which adds to the poppies of the song.

Or something.

It is also a song Pearl Jam and BoB could have messed up alot. Swallow Hole feels like it could have evolved into this.

Still getting Springsteen vibes from The Dark. If Swallowed Whole could have turned into something good, Fallout Today is closer to what I was thinking.

Has anyone listened to the Dolby Atmos version of the album?

It's quite different - seems to dial back the hot production a bit and give everything more room (as this format usually does). Hopefully the vinyl version sounds more like this :thumbsup:

I think the only place is Apple Music?
Unfortunately my device doesn’t meet the minimum requirements for Dolby Atmos. :(

P.S. Apparently Tidal & Amazon HD also offer Dolby Atmos so I assume those are options too.
