i read it as the album. i chuckled at mike turbo soloing regardless of whatever happens to be going on around him

OK, so this review calls Scared of Fear one of the band's best ever songs. We were assuming the tweet by the reviewer was referring to WFS.

I lol'd a little bit, too.

Of all the obligatory intros attempting to weave in themes of quantum physics and returning to form, this one does a semi decent job.

I am 100% framing mind that way

Personally, I find this one highly encouraging.

the description of Something Special as "something Red Hot Chilli Peppers would reject" (apart from being amazingly random and nonsensical) is the best endorsement of the song yet

[stip]

the early reviews around Something Special are not especially promising

[WaitingForBluey]

"Two tracks that only get better the more volume you add."

Trag is gonna take this guy back behind the woodshed. Watch out buddy, you've been warned.

[Ms Harmless]

they're not, but the bar for "worst song on an album" is Supersonic so I'm not worried

OK, so this review calls Scared of Fear one of the band's best ever songs. We were assuming the tweet by the reviewer was referring to WFS.

Yeah, that seems to be the case, especially since he says something like Mike "saves" the song. Not really a ringing endorsement.

He does say it for WFS too.

"McCready also steps up to save Waiting for Stevie, a song that recalls The Bends-era Radiohead or Urban Hymns-era The Verve, until the guitarist’s scorching fretwork pulls it into a double-time sprint."

This reviewer says Got to Give recalls Springsteen whereas most reviewers have likened it to a Who song.

maybe he finds Radiohead depressing so his opinion doesn't matter

yeah but he's not saying Mike 'saves' it

[stip]

I think for Gigaton at some point I made a little spread sheet that tracked what was said about every song in every review. Definitely did not have it in my this time. And it's possible I'm making this up and never did it

WFS obviously gonna have a big 90's feel
