I mostly post on mobile, and can't seem to edit a pic down to size. So you're stuck with this.

Yes, username checks out.
I can sort one for you. Are you happy to trust me to choose something?

I have questions.

Are you generally a trustworthy person?

What are your thoughts on frozen yogurt?

Both Binaural and Backspacer lack follow through on initial concept.

Production mainly.

BS has five tracks (1-4+SS) that I think fit the brief. Maybe FoN and UK could creep in to the brief. AtW, JB and The End don’t fit it at all.

Binaural has more of a commitment to the idea of going for mood above all. But they chickened out at the very end and brought BOB in to add some pizzazz. In retrospect, I wish they went all the way with the whole "this is our Pink Floyd album", even though I quite like what they accomplished anyway.

Backspacer is another missed opportunity in that regard. I wish they would have went all the way with "this is our Cars record." A tight 35-minute album that is filled with upbeat, punchy tunes that lean in on the heretofore unexplored lighter side of Pearl Jam. Basically a whole record with the feel of The Fixer, Johnny Guitar, Got Some, etc. Instead, I think they got about halfway there and it turned into half a conventional Pearl Jam record.

Spot on, my man. Bailing halfway through both projects.

I’m not going to argue but Binaural has better song writing and Ed still sounds like Ed.
