Lightning Bolt: the official album thread

[harmless]

Probably not. I need more sleep eventually.

[harmless]

What the fuck? What am I doing with my life?

We post. You respond.

This is harmless' world, you just post in it?

[dimejinky99]

Don't go harmless.
We need you

You mean you need
How about this kiss in the south passage? Huh? Huh??
I don't know what you're talking about.. I'd rather kiss a wookie
I can arrange that!!

You could use a good kiss!

I don't know what to do with this. (That's what he said.)

You better sleep for a couple of days straight before the whole album drops. You'll need the energy to post an ungodly amount of posts. I'm betting you'll hit 20,000 around that time, and end up with the wanker's cramp of an 80 year old.

I just... I just feel... like I'm listening to a PJ record here, not just a half-hearted attempt at one. It's good. There are obviously things that a good contingent of the fans aren't going to like here. I could take or leave Brendan O'Brien. But it just tickles me in all the right places, musically, even though it doesn't do anything I wish PJ were doing in 2013.

How many times have you gone through the songs? Any song fatigue yet?

Hundreds and hundreds of times, probably. And no.

I think this album will be their most polarizing. It'll shake off a bunch if long term fans, gain a bunch if new fans, but it will also simultaneously baffle and give an eargasm to many of us.

I feel as if I'm being sexually demoralised but I'm liking it.

I keep thinking this is how "old" fans must've felt being presented with No Code after coming off the first three records. Quite a shift in the paradigm.

So... i dug 4 of the 5 songs prior to Sirens, but sadly I have to say that musically it's one of their most generic songs in their catalog.

it also feels like it's 10 minutes long

All things you could say about Black if you wanted to

Black is generic musically? News to me.

[Jorge]

Hey stip did I come up with Harmless's new rank? I vaguely remember coming up with it, maybe

It's not news to all the people who called it generic all this time. It's "news to you" because you like it.

[nightmareblack0206]

Somebody get Rick Parasher on the phone

There are people who dislike Black? News to me.

p.s. It's not even a favorite of mine, but why you brought up a song as strong as that in comparison to Sirens idk.

[harmless]

Why Parasher? Ten is as washed in effects as this is, probably more. Or are you hoping the guitars would get louder?
