Favorites of the unleaked/new tracks: MFS, Pendulum, Yellow Moon.

Overall, I'm really impressed.

I look forward to putting the rotten kids to bed and being able to really listen


Back later.
I think upper middle too. Although initial reactions can be way off...

MFS is fantastic on first listen and I totally get the comparisons to 90s Pearl Jam. Sirens sounds strange after it. Is the single version of Sirens produced differently or am I hearing things?

And - LTRP WTF? Shitstorm.
I was just thinking that...Pendulum into Swallowed Whole into Let The Records Play is kind of a mess. On first listen at least, which may not be fair.
Oh, man. I dunno. I kinda needed Swallowed Whole after Pendulum. I thought it worked well.

Oh, I knew that. I meant the download version but I bet I'm just hearing things. The guitars sounded crunchier right now.

I think LTRP is just making my brain hurt.

Lightning Bolt is still good and now even a little better in non-shitty quality.

You'd be my hero. Won't be around a computer with iTunes until very late this evening.

Can you skip ahead on this stream? I had to pause, and it restarted... Can't figure out how to skip ahead. I guess maybe not, since it is a "stream" and all....

I like the verses but it's that chorus... :shake:
LTRP sounds even worse now, as it's among better songs. This should have been killed. Silly.

I'm not your hero but that doesn't mean that I wasn't brave.

I've been jumping all over the place. And skipping tracks.

Yellow Moon definitely sounded much better on second listen.

Im also getting over the chorus for INfallible. I wanted it to be something else but im getting used to it and it is now becoming a better song. I think the verse is still the magic in the song though...
