That’s surprising but ok

But I still am extremely skeptical that were the band run democratically, there would be enough support for it to sound as awful as it does.
I think the theory thrown out yesterday that maybe they never cared all that much holds some water. They've made 11 albums, a handful of which we generally agree are very well produced. That could just be dumb luck.

We all do friend. This is part of the process.

Me too. Despite it's depravity, it's still the best place to have an intelligent conversation about the band I've been married to forever.

Folks on that board with 10's of thousands of posts are considered to be subject matter experts. To me, 20K + posts on any message board screams mental illness. I'd be curious what they're missing in their real lives
