Couldn't really listen to this, it was that bad. But somehow, I could still hear some interesting ideas. Backspacer could probably have used a different approach than the one they used. The album just sounds too straightforward.

My favorite thing about playing around with these Backspacer stems is finally getting a good listen at the background "yeah yeah yeah" track, which is just ADORABLE

Either Matt, Jeff or Brendan O'Brien. It's definitely not Ed and it doesn't have that nasally Stone sound.

There's similar background vocal hilarity to be found on the stems of other songs labelled 'song' - Matt does Johnny Guitar as well :thumbsup:
