I think everything he does on LB is fantastic. Swallowed whole sounds really good too. And the stuff in sirens sounds appropriate for the style--if I have a beef there it's with the style, and that's not BoB

Well, I'm pretty sure it's BoB's influence. I'm fairly sure BoB would've softened the intent of the "dark Pink Floyd sound" while helping him arrange it. But I try not to think about that and enjoy the song for what it is.

perhaps. Thus far I have no real beefs with anything BoB did on this record except perhaps the two fadeouts--some of sirens excess, maybe, but I don't know what's him

I 'blame' him for eddies voice being too loud and sounding like its sitting ontop of the music. I thought the same this about backspacer too, and that quote about having eddie good and loud leads me to believe thats mostly his doing.

I know that doesn't bother everybody though.

Yeah, it's not as much fun when you can make out 90% of what Ed's saying right off the bat, versus the historical 60%.

I remember thinking how low his voice was on all albums through RA and being disappointed he wasn't louder and thinking it was Ed not wanting to be the focus because he didn't want the fame blah blah blah-which may be true-but I soon realized how much better those albums are because of it...he shines irregardless

Ugh. Words whose meaning is not predictable from the meanings of their constituent morphemes are just the worst, aren't they?

Eventually, this turns into the "I couldn't vs. could care less" debate.

I take comfort in knowing that, yet again, my favorite song on an album is the one most widely despised . . . . .
