Bad take. They left some skiddies with Riot Act but officially shat the bed with Backspacer imo. Lightning Bolt was a full blown shart attack.

The main trick to not shating is dying before you have to go.

Pearl Jam shat the bed, but their best material is so far ahead of some of the other artists mentioned here, that it’s not really a fair comparison. If your best or regular output is mediocre, you’ve shat the bed from the very start.

So you're not going to tell us where Daft Punk, Portishead, Tribe and D'Angelo shat the bed?

The first two yes, for the second two I abstain, as I find them both dreadfully boring.
Daft Punk and Portishead came out as motherf******* sublime on their debuts, and failed to follow up adequately as their careers progressed.

I don't think you know what a proper bed-shitting sounds like, Anders.

I dont like Portishead third album. I also think its not fair comparing a band or artist who makes a lot of music with Dangelo or Portishead who have like 3 albums in 30 years
