Gigaton: Official album thread

[Matters]

I’m fully good with putting both songs on the top shelf.

[Jaeti]

the worst song on gigaton is still pretty good. and at least five are amazing.

Nailed it.

[Leatherhead]

Not putting 7:00 near the top of Gigaton is crazy.

I mean, I guess it's not crazy if you acknowledge there are at least five amazing songs. In that case, you could place it "middle of the pack" and you're still correct in the way that matters most.

[Strat]

DOTC is the only song to reach the top tier pj list in the last 15 years.

Many other songs make other lists and bring me joy at different times for different reasons.

And - that's okay.

(Post about new album being shit )

Edit : wrong thread , gigaton is alright I only come back to about 3 songs though

[Tj]

DOTC may be the best song since Binaural everything is kinda forgotten now Seven O'clock should have great but it just goes on forever less would have so much more. Who Ever is fine but Life wasted is Better. SuperBlood is underrated. Quick Escape Ed Worst moment of all time. No need to be a Bono Ed. Alright well alright. Some Stone song I don't remember about a sponge bath. Comes then goes is great but I will probably never listen to it again maybe it needed a hook.

[Matters]

If all of Seven O’clock was as good as its first 26 seconds it would be my favorite song on the album. As it is, it’s bottom half.

[RockPusher]

I still listen to the whole album whenever I put it on. I love its flow.

[coptheriotact]

I still revisit take the long way, buckle up and surprisingly never destination.


quick escape, river cross, retrograde, comes the goes are in the "never listen again pile" with lightning bolt.

the rest of the songs i could enjoy if i could bring EV vocals down a few Db, and cut out 20% of lines. ( i could probably do this with DJ stem software) he doesn't sing to his strengths.. (DOTC and 7oclock).

i like when he sung through gritted teeth.

[Matters]

Before tonight I never noticed how Take the Long Way bleeds into Buckle Up.

[Ms Harmless]

I still listen to the whole album whenever I put it on. I love its flow.

same, the album as a whole is greater than the sum of its parts, which is Pearl Jam through and through for me

[stip]

the worst song on gigaton is still pretty good. and at least five are amazing.

Good lord stip what five songs do you qualify as amazing

the run of the first four and comes than goes. but i like all of them

[VinylGuy]

yeah Gigaton is great.

[Jaeti]

I still listen to the whole album whenever I put it on. I love its flow.

Pretty much always true for me, too.

[stip]

it is still the album i am most likely to put in from start to finish

[VinylGuy]

yeah, me too, specially if listen to it on vinyl, i finish it.

The flow is particulary good on this album and the production is top notch for me. Sounds very fucking good, specially after the LB debacle.

[guitar_davey]

it is still the album i am most likely to put in from start to finish

[Leatherhead]

DOTC has more listens than every LB song except Sirens. That's cool.
