Ed's voice in the bridge really caught me, along with Mike's handiwork on the solo and the small nuances in the outro. Like many I was taken back when I first listened and realized it was another punk PJ song, but this one works and works really frigin well. IMO, best debut single since I Am Mine.

Just couldn't take all the BS at the 10C board anymore so wanted to finally join, you guys make me laugh...a lot. I mean that in a good way. Bring on the Bolt, baby :wave:
Welcome to the board :D

This thread is a total success in getting me to actually post on this board. I think I have almost equaled my post total from the old board. And I signed up for that board in 2004 I think, but didn't post too much. You guys are just so damn charming I cannot resist anymore.

Some guy is supposedly explaining the album cover here. I haven't watched it yet so not sure exactly what the dude says. I'm sure it's not close to being what Pearl Jam was going for but.....

edit - yep this is stupid as hell :haha:

No problem at all man, this is RM after all. That was... "entertaining". :lol:

I love how a band album cover can be interpreted as predicting the rapture. Oh, and there's a hidden dog in the new cover too, that I can't unsee. Fuck. :nice:
