'which one is the new one?' he asks, having never heard any of them.

[Kevin Davis]

"Anti"

[stip]

then no

Riot Act is the last great PJ album. I'm not sure I'd call it a "Post Riot Act Money Grab" - but I mean call it a "Post Riot Act middle age malaise."

I really struggle to get excited about Help Help (meandery slop rock) & Green Disease (does anything happen in this song of note?). Get Right is also pretty forgettable. Especially when "Other Side" could have been included.

Apart from that, I love everything. Even Bushleaguer, though dated, is at least adventurous.

Riot Act also contains "Thumbing My Way" & "All or None" two songs that mean a huge deal to me, and would be essential on any playlist I make for friends.

So, yeah. Riot Act.

Other Side is such a boring dirge.

[stip]

seriously

[epilogue]

I totally understand why Other Side was left off of Riot Act. And I suppose I even understand why people would think it's uninteresting... but I disagree. It's a wonderful, emotional, and exact piece. It really means a lot to me. Especially as a conversation piece with Sad.

[Jorge]

I think "Other Side" is great.

[LoathedVermin72]

I would also like to express my fondness for that particular song.

[Birds in Hell]

Conversely, All or None is one of their very best dirges.

[LetMeSleep]

Both Otherside and All Or None are fantastic.

[guestT]

other side is so good. it should have been paired with you are as the emotional centerpieces of ra.

all or none has a nice guitar intro but as soon as the vocals come in i'm like "ehhh i know where this is going zzz."

[epilogue]

Both Otherside and All Or None are fantastic.

I can confirm this.
