For me, the bridge in Supersonic might be the best moment on the entire album. The rest of the song is garbage, but that bridge alone elevates Supersonic over half the other shit on Backspacer.

I think Got Some getting zero votes is indicative of how it's perceived on this album...

A turd surrounded by grosser turds doesn't seem so bad.

I'm surprised at the end. That was one of the songs people swooned over when the album first dropped, and it's a nice performance.

Unthought Known and Speed of Sound. I really like everything else that's left.


That version of Unthought known on that remixed backspacer that was posted here a few months back is really good though. If that was the official release I'd still be voting for it. The skeleton of that song is really good. It's just a little flat on the album.
