Re: Dark Matter: Official Album Thread
More from the Pit on the listening party:
"Yeah it's all a bit of a blur with the environment but from my recollection it's heavy in the earlier part ot the album, (the volume may have made it seem heavier) the rest is still rocking there's no buckle up or anything, other than something special which Ed dedicated to his daughters and maybe seen as a bit of an outlier on the album
I wasn't disappointed and I don't think most fans will be with most of the album"
"It was really loud, akin to going to a concert and a band plays a bunch of new songs, many elements of those songs just get buried in the mix, so they don't necessarily leave a lasting impression. Add to that the fact Ed was engaging with fans, it was very hard to concentrate.
In general I came away feeling like it was less experimental than a lot of stuff they've put out in the last 20 years or so, the songs sounded more immediate and melodic, it was pretty dark and heavy at points, but as someone else mentioned, some of the heaviness may just have been how loud they were playing it. My lasting impression is that they sounded energised and like they were trying to make a more straight forward rock record."

Pearl Jam is the only band I'll spend money on.

The waiting made me mad
Now it's here and it's a mess
I didn't want sour cream
I clearly said I want ranch

Son she said I have happy meal for you
But what you thought was your patty
Was nothing but pink slime
While you were sleeping your daddy ordering
Oh I'm stealing a fry oh I I'm stealing fry

Re: Dark Matter: Official Album Thread
So it’s sound like from the reviews
Waiting for Stevie
Scared of fear
React/Respond
Wreckage
Good To Give
Have been well received by reviewers
Setting sun
Something special
Seemed liked mostly
Dark matter & Running we know.
Won’t tell & Upper hand are barely mentioned.
Stone describes Waiting for Stevie as a hit!!! Still not sure the logic of running being a single tbh.
