I remember this being a common instant reaction to hearing Yellow Moon for the first time

I don't really care if it does or not, I love Low Light, and I'm starting to love Yellow Moon.
To me Yellow Moon is your friends little sister who all your other friends have hooked up with cause she's a whore. Your friend being Lowlight.
so how many sisters do you have?

But they're all 3/4 or 6/8 so they're exactly the same!

When "Yield" leaked to radio in January 1998, this was the first song that really stuck with me. I've always loved it.

I first heard a piece of it on Single Video Theory. Yeah, I owned that before I owned Yield. I also liked it instantly.

It's funny, when Yield first dropped I liked it but it felt light weight to me. Not a ton stuck for the first several months. But Lowlight, DtE and No Way were instant hits for me. And they've remained so every since.

Thankfully, the rest of the album has caught up. Yield is a fucking monster record.
