As said before the production on this song sucks ass so bad. It should be used as evidence A in the case why BOB should never produce a Pearl Jam album again period.

The said there is some hidden brilliance in this song. Eds lyrics in most part are incredible. Matt is a monster(live) mike solos are a brilliant.
It makes unthought known a demo (apart from gems and rhinestone part).

It reminded me PJ can write a great classic song still. Like a Getaway/Yellow Moon/Pendulum it's not different to something they haven't done before. But they are still great songs in there own right.

Please re-record this song at some stage Pearl Jam!!

Unthought Known is a top 5 song for me. Lightning Bolt isn't even a Top 40. Other than the palm muted bit I am not sure why the songs are compaired to each other. I am missing something. Unthought Known may have a link to Light years, and Lightning Bolt may have a link to Lbc. I just can not connect the four of them.

I can not put it any other way. I am flawed. To make matters worse it may be number one at least it ties for number 2.

When I think about it Unthought Known is my number two all by it's self. There is a three way tie at one and a tie at third, and if you want to vomit in your mouth I will reveal one of the number three songs. It is up to you, but if you want to taste your last meal again I will offer up a diarrhea of mouth inducing number three.

It's out now. It's baffling but there you go. You should treat us all to your top 10 in the relevant thread.

Just checking if you've heard their entire catalogue or just BS and LB?

Yes I have been on board since day one. Understand this I am not saying best I am saying favorite. Critically I understand the flawed choices I have made

There are a lot of my favorites in there, but UK & JB still make no sense.
