Why can’t he just let the music breath a little bit?

It was done as a tribute to Eric Garner

The songs on Gigatron

[dimejinky99]

It is a very wordy album. In a physical sense.
I did wonder how Ed’s gonna deal with a song like superblood in a live setting.
It’s a lot.
But handled well seemingly

[Leatherhead]

Holding firm at 5 stars.

Bumping to 5 to spite trag and his obsession with the chili peppers

excellent

[Strat]

Sounds like a Kiedes rap

I think the wordy and frenzied vocals work and give a sense of urgency to the mission. It’s very different than the crowded sort of wordiness in Vs., where Animal for instance the angry and frenzied lyrics meld with the guitar solo. This is more of a desperate call out to the world to get our collective shit together for the planet…I still love nearly everything about this album.

[Bammer]

I think you guys read way too much into this but whatever

The Gigaton tour finally starts tomorrow! (The first leg has no sold out shows btw.....)

Feels weird after such a long time, but I do want to see a lot of Gigaton tracks on the setlists...
