When a band is but a fraction of Pearl Jam, but they aren't zero Pearl Jam.

There is nothing bland about Non Sate Actor..is such a great rock song, specially because Matt and Ben.

And Attrition is awesome.

i would say Taree is kinda bland or maybe Black Saturday.

Yes, because that is the single determinant as to whether a Soundgarden song is good or not.

Attrition is fantastic. It's completely new territory for Soundgarden and they pulled it off completely as far as I'm concerned.

Live To Rise is a really great song. It doesn't get enough respect. :heartbeat:

Does new territory mean shit lyrics and boring mid-paced rock songs?

Nawww I'm just having fun you guys.

But seriously the song is boring.

Attrition could have been more aggressive vocally and more raucous musically but I'm glad we have it. I want everything these guys will give us.

Attrition's lyrics are probably the best on the album. Like plenty of good punk songs, the song is really a vehicle for its lyrics.

I enjoy Halfway There for what it is, but I agree with your point. The HT demo was miles more interesting.

I dunno, even if you like the lyrics the actual melody and delivery are pretty banal

i kinda forgot about Live to rise...in the context of King Animal being as good as it is, i like that song more...specially for the Thayil solo at the end.

Anyone listened to the bass on Non State Actor?? its fucking great.

Yep. But, that whole song is great. One of the real growers from the album. I especially love the last 1.5 minutes of it.

After all this months, im still listening to this one almost every day...the first 6 tracks are incredible...i cant seem to like Taree and Black Saturday and Worse Dreams are cool but not heavy enough for me.

Halfway There sucks.
