Lightning Bolt: the official album thread

[stupidmop]

Guys, do we genuinely think this will leak?

I think the earliest we'll hear it is next weekend after Australia get it

We actually get it on Friday

With the timezones it means it'll either be Thursday here when you get it.....or Saturday? Or well, Friday, I may be confusing matters. Either way I gotta wait till some kind soul unleashes it unto the internet.

I really just want to find out whether this album was worth throwing away three months of my life for.

i know its been asked a bunch before and i cant remember the answer, but where is that from?

The wire is better than sopranos in every imaginable measurable way.

Even he knew that character died long before he did.

It's from a Neil Young live video, right?

I saw the gif before I read what you quoted, and I was kinda let down you hadn't quoted the post about McP getting ready to bleach his anus.

A standard rule - lower your expectations to near rock-bottom whenever you see one of my posts, then it will almost be impossible for you to be let down.

RM has been more entertaining in the last 3 months than in the last 3 years. So even if Lightning Bolt turns out to somehow become horrible, and I hate every song--even the ones I like--it was still a great 3 months.

A dude on Daily Motion says the album leaked...

Reminds me of Wrigley before the rain delay. They showed a guy in the front row on the screens during one of the songs ( Nothingman maybe?) that WAS SO INTO IT.

Then he had to leave the front row. Wonder if he made it back up. I felt kinda bad for him.

what is this gif actually from?

[stip]

shit, just saw doc's post

So the gif is from the Weld video. I thought it was from Hey Hey, My My, but it's not. Chest pounding dude is in Hey Hey, My My, but just nodding along coolly. That being said, like 85% of this video is gif-worthy audience reactions shots. Some of it amazing. At least five shots that would make even better gifs than the chest pounding dude (and I say that with the utmost respect for chest pounding dude).

okay, I'm going to pick up Ellie and go home to my family. When I get back I'll check to find out whether or not my plan for this evening is to ignore the hell out of them and beg Hilary for forgiveness tomorrow.

I think my favorite part is 4:02 - 4:16, when the woman with the glasses and the vaguely nun-like outfit screams "HEY HEY, MY MY!" and then starts pounding her fist.
