Oh cool cool.

Yeah, for me its a pretty beloved and well known album, specially for those who are not die hards. I could say the same about Backspacer, at least here in my country, both Backspacer and ST for example got way more attention than, lets say Binaural and Riot Act.

To be honest, other than around the time of their album releases, I'm not sure I ever hear anyone talk about any album of theirs post-Yield. They just don't seem known for their albums anymore, which I wonder is partially due to the 2000s being the time when their reputation as a live act that plays for 3+ hours and always changes their set became more well known. That seemed to kind of take over being their identity, rather than their records.

yeah, could be. That kinda changed here with ST and Backspacer here, maybe because of videos i dont know..Just Breathe...And i think they coming to play live for the first time in 2005 helped a lot because it establish them as a band you needed to follow.

The bridge on ATY is absolutely priceless.
It was quite a challenge to repeat it note for not too when I did my first singalongs.

I had a three month trial of Apple Music, and decided to try it again today. Put on Yield and wooo boy, the atmos mix (on headphones) is very cool.

Would love to be able to play this on speakers, but I’ve only got two edifier shelf speakers so it wouldn’t be the same.

I love all 12 PJ albums. DM is probably their best effort since Yield.

Nothing will ever top Yield for me and that's perfectly OK. It shall always be king.
