Red Mosquito

fuck yeah flac, way to go 10c!

12 songs on Lightning Bolt.

I.......like it. Probably thier best rocker since binaural.

Can't understand a word eddie says.

Not bad. Definitely not what I was expecting with that song title.

There are a few "rockers" on Riot Act that are easily better than this.

they've taken your innocence and they don't wanna burn bee baa daa baa haaaaayyyy

Loved MYM, probably one of the best punk rock songs PJ ever (Better than Comatose IMO)
Better lead single than WWS and The Fixer.

Lets see how LB will go now.

anyone figured out the lyrics?

For sure. I have hope that this album could be better than Backspacer but my expectations are still tempered.

not sure how it could be worse than backspacer. sounds like it was ripped straight from the S/T sessions. that is, it appears as though they (unsurprisingly) continue to till fallow creative ground.

The bridge into the solo is fantastic.
Also love the drop just around 2-minute mark.

It's not bad. It's also not really good. I think it would be much improved without (a) the lyric "mind your manners!" (b) the brief pause before each utterance of it, and (c) the stop-start toward the end of the song. I'm just not a fan of that little trick.

I liked it less by the end than I did before the first "mind your manners!" made me cringe a little bit, but maybe having more lyrics for context will take the edge off of that feeling.

sent the youtube link to a friend who is a casual PJ fan. his review:

"It's got that newer PJ vibe to it, but with a stronger riff. I like it. More of a Yield/No Code vibe."

Here's a stab.

I got an unfortunate feeling I've been beaten down
I feel life don't believe and the truth is coming out
What they take is more than about
they're taking your innocence and they're going bout burnin valhalla

I'm just saying
Mind your manners

I caught myself believin' that I needed god
and if it's heart and soul we sure could use it now

Try my patience, my patience tried
this world's alone and that makes me wanna cry

I'm just saying
Mind your manners
so I'm saying

Self realized and metaphysically redeeming, not live another life, not solve our mystery
right around the corner could be bigger than ourself, we could will it to the sky, or we could something else

You're no longer saying
Mind your manners
Always praying

Self realized and metaphysically redeeming, not live another life, not solve our mystery
right around the corner could be bigger than ourself, we could will it to the sky, or we could something else

Go to heaven, that's swell!
How do you like it, living hell!

Maybe Save You. But not much else comes close.

save you, but that's it.

yeah my initial thoughts are logical extension of self titled but I'll take that if it means we get another parachute

I like it...pretty much in line with what i was expecting out of their lead single.

That said, this isn't really the type of music i'm excited to hear from these guys at this point. Give me another Nothing As It Seems over the 3 minute rocker anyday.

does eddie throw out a "son of Satan!"...? i don't know why i hear that.

Like all of them.

But this is OK, better than I expected.
