Lightning Bolt: The Official Album Thread

[Oh, Jimmy]

Pendulum's a nice little song and all, but I think people are overrating it. I think b/c it's fairly unique in the PJ catalog and it was among the first snippets of LB we heard, leaving people to wonder where else that little nugget goes. It's 1000x cooler than Unthought Known but they both suffer from the same "this doesn't really go anywhere" thing. It ranks among the better songs on the album, but the mention of it being the best song since the 90s boggles my mind.

I really like Pendulum but there are plenty of songs on Binaural and Riot Act that are much better.

Binaural maybe, but I'm struggling to think of a better song off Riot Act

Most of Riot Act is better than Pendulum.

Yeah, seriously.

Yeah, seriously.

These two men are very astute in this observation.

[Rangi Guy]

As much as I like Riot Act - I still think I'd rather listen to Pendulum over any individual song on Riot Act

Ohhhh - 1000 posts. BOOM!

No they're not. And you're not doing them any favors by telling them so. Best to start letting them down gently

I like every song on Lbolt. Something has to be on the bottom.

Let the Records Play is my new Big Wave, I can't understand the general antipathy.

[stip]

Me neither. Its a very solid song

It's my new Fixer.

To be fair, most of Riot Act is better than a lot of good PJ songs. Pendulum is still an excellent song.

Dave, I'd be right there with you if it weren't for All or None. All or None is tops on RA for me, and Yellow Moon is topping L/B. If those two were to fight it out, we'd be basking in the sweet glow of the Yellow Moon. Now, if those two were to have a baby...
