Everyone should drink tequila the first time they hear it. At least five shots.

I would really like to see another ballad with prominent electric guitars; I think they easily have another "Immortality"-style song in them

I don't know...Nothing as it Seems is kind of in the vein of Immortality. That one worked out alright.

Also, Kid C said there's a Floydish type song on Gigaton - maybe that'll be the one you're looking for

the last time we heard "Pink Floydish" we got Inside Job

that said, I really liked Sirens; another song like that with better production and more creative instrumentation would make me happy

I remember Mike said Sirens was Pink Floyd-ish too.

Mike obviously had Pink Floyd confused with Warrant

I think we're going by what we know so far:

01 Who Ever Said (driving rocker) Lyric: All the answers will be found in the mistakes we have made
02 Superblood Wolfmoon (rocker) Sizzling Mike McCready guitar solo
03 Dance Of The Clairvoyants Talking Heads-tinged single
04 Quick Escape (Huge bass groove by Jeff Ament) Lyric: sleep sack, a bivouac and Kerouac sense of time
05 Alright Lyric: if your heart still beats free, keep it to yourself
06 Seven O'Clock (trippy pink floyd-esque)
07 Never Destination (MFC-esque uptempo) Strong Mike McCready guitar solo
08 Take The Long Way (riffy monster tricky time signature) Lyric: I always take the long way / It leads me back to you
09 Buckle Up (Abstract by Stone Gossard)
10 Comes Then Goes (Vedder acoustic) Lyric: We could all use a savior from human behavior
11 Retrograde (Slow burning ballad) Lyric: Feel the sound
12 River Cross (Intense ballad) Lyric: I want this dream to last forever / I wish this moment was never-ending
