I hate the piano in FD. What a way to destroy a song.

So basically what you're saying is that when they rose from the ashes of Mother Love Bone they didn't really rise that much.

Pendulum, My Father's Son, Swallowed Whole, Sleeping By Myself.

There are parts of other songs that I like, but there are more parts in those songs that I don't like that add up to a net loss.

I thought you'd really like Yellow Moon. I still have a lot to learn about you Peter N Clarke.

Yep. But don't worry, Dime is fighting against that line of thinking. We can sleep soundly. He won't let the Grunge Survivors who have always done things on their own terms be painted into a corner.
