Thankfully, Jeff has taken more of the creative mantle recently. Hope he keeps that influence going forward - as most of the guys were really wowed by how My Father's Son turned out.

Sometimes it can be hard to find the time to write and, when I do get something finished, I feel the need to throw my hands up in the air and-

I think I've written more in the last few years than I ever have in my life.

Can someone sit them down and explain to them that really none of vitalogy - binaural is that weird or out there? Because really its not.
Ed is annoying, at some point he has to act on that ' maybe its time to get back to that weirder stuff' thing hes been saying for the past 5 years. .

God's dice is a pretty remarkable song in that it manages to simultaneously be a fast song that I suspect every member of the band is yawning while they play.
Does that qualify as experimental?

I bet if we start a 'binaural saved my life and makes me think of my dead dog omg its so misundertood what a wonderful time in pearl jam history' campaign, in a couple of years they'll be singing a different tune.
The ' weirdest' song on there is sleight of hand, which seems to be popping up more than usual if anything.

that's true. Binaural is a lot better than Our Lady Peace.
