That one version from their "live" video was really great.

These guys haven't touched songs from this album in years other than MYM
Yeah the video version was miles better than the album version. Just goes to show the impact of BoB's LB production!

There are some real stinkers on the second side of this album. Sleeping By Myself and Future Days... I can't even find words to describe them but emotionally I remember it being the first time I actually felt embarrassed by some of their output.

future days is a lovely autumnal love song with a shitty piano intro

Everything is shitty about that version; mostly because it lacks PJ.

I prefer that solo Eddie version to what they did on LB

i listened to Lightning Bolt twice this weekend and had a grand old time.

Mind your manner - sirens - lightning bolt

and

Sleeping by myself - yellow moon - future days are my two favorite stretches

Infallible is the song i most wish they’d revisit

Sleeping By Myself must be the band's absolute nadir (so far).

It's like all taste went out the window on this album.

i actualyl think Sleeping By Myself is a top tier song for this album. Everything else is "been there, done that" and them doing SBM.....feels like a unique offering.

Yall can fuck off.

My Father's Son gets too much credit

it's bc the rest of the album is so terrible, it is more palatable

it sounds like ass

This is the bands worst album...by a significant margin.
