I'm also really enjoying the shared reactions with you all. So many great songs. I really liked the Jeff Amet unboxing. The Josh Evans article was great. The Jeff and Ed on Bill Simmons pod was even better. I too find random songs from the whole album popping into my head. Rivercross sooo much >>> Future days. Lots to be excited about. The boys have been allowed to indulge their creative and almost proggy instincts for the first time since RA and it has paid off ten fold.

I haven't been this excited and grateful for a PJ release since probably Yield. And as much as I enjoy moments of the Binaural-avocado run (and there are some excellent tracks, even favorites, on those albums) I feel sooo vindicated for holding onto my fandom for all these years.

I'm with you. Nice post. Stick around for a bit.

Eventhough the songwriting wasn't always inspiring it did provided us with new tones and sentiment. The only color Lightning Bolt added was grey...It did had some good songs for sure, but overall I think it's their worst album by far (dadrock). Someday they will release Lost Dogs 2 and we will discover they left out some great tracks from both BS and LB.....

Gigaton is soo much better than both!

I bought the 24 bit version and I noticed 2 instances of a very bad static noise.

I can’t think of which songs atm. I’ll have to listen today and report back.

Qobuz and Dilbert had a baby?

My Qobuz HD does not have this issue.

Nor did the one I purchased from HDTracks (same files). Please report back with song and timecode when you get a chance, and I'll check it out.

I’m at work but I found one in Take The Long Way @ 0:53.

I know I heard at least one other instance. I’ll have to put my headphones on when I get home.
