this album still sucks

Of the last 3, I've only changed my tune on S/T. It has aged decently for me, especially with the songs live. But BS and LB are both still not very good.

would you rather spend $30 on two not very good albums, or $30 on one coffee mug?

You mean the one that still has shitty songs from Backspaced on it?

I have no idea how I would rank these songs.

When did people start turning on Swallowed Whole? I thought the consensus around here was that it was one of the better examples of latter-day PJ doing their soaring chorus thing. I love the 'Into The Wild' vibe of the song and the jangley REM-style guitar in the verses

The lyrics are decent by recent standards too, if only Ed could remember them - played 15 times and none of them even close to flub-free.

Like:
Pendulum
Getaway
Sirens
Swallowed Whole

Delete the rest.

Solid and Satisfying
Lightning Bolt
Pendulum
Sleeping by Myself
Swallowed Whole

Runny and Putrid
Getaway
MYM
My Father's Son
Sirens
Yellow Moon

Full On Diarrhea Shits
Infallible
Let the Records Play
Future Days

If it makes you feel any better, I've never liked it. It's been my least favorite song on the record since first listen. I've always been a vocal hater of the song.

But I think it's still mostly well liked by the majority.

Just listened to this yesterday

Quite Enjoy:
Yellow Moon
Lightning Bolt

Not Too Shabby:
Getaway
MYM
Sirens
Pendulum
Swallowed Whole

Just ok
Sleeping By Myself
My Father's Son
Infallible

Wait, these guys made fucking Vitalogy?

Yeah, that's pretty good.

Since this thread is about Lightning Bolt and Harmless is no longer on this board and wants nothing to do with it, I think we should change the thread title

His legacy needs to continue.

No, I think we should change it. Stip, please change it
