As good as this album is (maybe their best), it isn't the musicianship statement it was talked up to be. It's still an Ed album with a little tinkering of the instruments here and there. Official reviewers of the album shouldn't have compared songs to Led Zeppelin other than Quick Escape which pj seemed to cut short. They come up with unique song structures and melodies for wordy songs. They can write a million quality songs but despite having 3 guitarists and other band members who attempt it, they can't lay down a layered guitar chord masterpiece composition like Page naturally did. Mike will always live and die by the wah wah peddle, unfortunately.

They gave it a 6.2. I think they started reviewing albums with Riot Act. These are the scores:

Gigaton: 6.2
Lightning Bolt: 5.0
Backspacer: 4.6
Avocado: 5.5
Riot Act: 4.9

In other words, the best album since at least Binaural. =)
I hear “Pitchfork” given all this great import on this site and others. Why the fuck am I supposed to give more weight to their review than other music sites again?
you are actually supposed to give them less weight. i didnt think they were still around
Just saw they gave a violin n harp album an 8.0

Take The Long Way Home
So you think you're a Romeo
You're playing a part in a picture show
Well, take the long way home
Take the long way home
But you're the joke of the neighborhood
Why should you care if you're feeling good?
You take the long way home
Take the long way home
But there are times that you feel
You're part of the scenery
All the greenery is coming down, boy
And then your wife seems to think
You're part of the furniture
Oh, it's peculiar, she used to be so nice
When lonely days turn to lonely nights
You take a trip to the city lights
And take the long way home
Take the long way home
You never see what you wanna see
Forever playing to the gallery
You take the long way home
Take the long way home
When you're up on stage
It's so unbelievable
Unforgettable, how they adore you
But then your wife seems to think
You're losing your sanity, oh, calamity
Oh, is there no way out?
Does it feel that your life's
Become a catastrophe?
Oh, it has to be for you to grow, boy
And when you look through the years
And see what you could have been
Oh, what you might have been
If you'd had more time
So when the day comes to settle down
Well, who's to blame if you're not around?
You took the long way home
Take the long way home
Take the long way home
Take the long way home
Take the long way home
Take the long way home
Take the long way, take the long way
Take the long way home
You took the long way home
Long way home, long way home
You took the long way home
You took the long way home
Took the long way home
You took the long way home
