TTLW could have been so much more.

I hate “take the looonnnnng” Taylor momsan or whatever her name is.

Bridge is cool. Just don’t like all the falsetto behind this song.

A new Wellwater album would be great!!
I'd actually be more excited about that than a new Pearl Jam album

She's a song highlight for me. I think she elevates it

I agree. That song is becoming one of my favorites off Gigaton. Early on, I just thought it was a'ight but helped by a totally bitchin' solo. Now I feel it is an album highlight.

The actual riff in the bridge is nice. Too bad you can’t really hear it on the full mix. PJ instagram posted this part without vocals as one of the teaser clips in the week before gig came out.

You can still find it and listen.

This could have been heavy. This could have been dark. There are ingredients in these last few records…..but they just have rarely been properly mixed. DoTC is an outlier. MFS too probably.

Hopefully wottzinski cured their ills.

2:18-3:01 on the door leak sounds a lot like 5-star Pearl Jam.

So much this! That’s the one that keeps getting stuck in my head.

I know it's kind of taking things to a ridiculous level, but seems to me we need a poll for people's favorite snippet of the 8.

Right after the one me and Jaeti talking about? I like the sound of it, again very Earthling. It feels to me like it could live next to "Fallout Today," which is one of my favorite Eddie-written tracks in a while so I wouldn't be upset about that.

Can we talk about how "in fine voice" Ed sounds on this thing? I don't know what dials Wotman is turning, or how much of this is repeatable live (let's be honest), but he's hitting some nice highs and sounding clear as crystal (all caveats of muffled door leak etc).

Ed´s voice was really good on earthling too yeah. In some of the rocking numbers he sounded very 1996
