Re: Dark Matter: Official Album Thread
I think every album has relatively weaker tracks. On Ten, those were Deep and Oceans for me. On Vs, I'd say Glorified G and Leash. On Vitalogy, ignoring the non-songs, I'd say Whipping and Satan's Bed. These are my top 3 PJ albums and I can pick at least 2 weaker tracks from them, so picking 2 from DM really won't be an issue either.
Pearl Jam is the only band I'll spend money on.

Lets play the: Rearranging Binaural (including B-Sides) one more time until the leak, that should keep us going.

I'm hoping those 2 are Something Special and Running.

Ahan? I always felt that was generally well-received, if not a highlight. The snippet from the metal door leak sounds promising enough. I do remember one review saying that it was similar in vibe to Wreckage, but not as memorable. I can't remember any actual negative comment about the song.unLEASHed wrote:Some of the reviews we got dont speak very well on Wont Tell, i think…Release_Me wrote:I'm hoping those 2 are Something Special and Running.

One review said that Got to Give was as close to filler as DM gets. Personally, I'm really looking forward to this one and probably setting myself up for disappointment, based on the metal door leak snippet. I don't think it will be a bad song, it just might not match the idea of the song I've built in my head.

No telling where I’ll stand in 6 months on it, but for the time being I’m rating it pretty highly.

Re: Dark Matter: Official Album Thread
However, there are reviews that speak positively of these songs. Something Special is almost universally singled out as the weak track. Even Running gets some positive reviews.

It has grown on me, too. I don't hate it at all. I'll rate it around 3.75/5. And that's why I want it to be one of the two relatively weaker tracks, because that would mean the rest of the album is great.Val wrote:I gotta say Running has grown on me.Release_Me wrote:I'm hoping those 2 are Something Special and Running.

We might have been going about this the wrong way with the metal door leaks, we dont now if some of the songs are in fact other parts of the same songs…we assumed they were all different songs, but maybe not…the one im putting my faith is the In Hiding vibes one, soaring Eddie is always good.Release_Me wrote:One review said that Got to Give was as close to filler as DM gets.

Nah, we've pretty much established the identity of each snippet from the leak, based on lyrics and descriptions that were revealed in the Stone interview or in some of the reviews.unLEASHed wrote:We might have been going about this the wrong way with the metal door leaks, we dont now if some of the songs are in fact other parts of the same songs…we assumed they were all different songs, but maybe not…the one im putting my faith is the In Hiding vibes one, soaring Eddie is always good.Release_Me wrote:One review said that Got to Give was as close to filler as DM gets.

First snippet is React, Respond and then it follows the album sequence until Dark Matter. The next two are interchanged, i.e. Upper Hand plays before Won't Tell. Then you have WFS, Something Special and Got to Give.
The song you pointed out is WFS.

Yes, it is. Then comes Won't Tell and I find that snippet catchy as hell.unLEASHed wrote:So Upper Hand is the one with Nothing as it Seems/ Pink Floydish guitars? im confused right nowRelease_Me wrote:Nah, we've pretty much established the identity of each snippet from the leak, based on lyrics and descriptions that were revealed in the Stone interview or in some of the reviews.unLEASHed wrote:We might have been going about this the wrong way with the metal door leaks, we dont now if some of the songs are in fact other parts of the same songs…we assumed they were all different songs, but maybe not…the one im putting my faith is the In Hiding vibes one, soaring Eddie is always good.Release_Me wrote:One review said that Got to Give was as close to filler as DM gets.

Upper Hand has the lyrics:
"Lonely ship on the horizon... silhouette"
Won't Tell has:
"Waiting for your message to come"
I don't recall the rest of the lyrics.
