Real talk question:
Would thodoks ever admit that the album is actually good? I mean, at this point, would go completely against every personality trait you have created for yourself.
haha, of course i would. i love pendulum, and, were the album constructed thematically and musically around the instincts displayed in its creation, i would have happily consumed the album, and announced the unexpected return of my affection for the band.
Musically, sure its a departure from others, but lyrically I think this song does fit in to a really cohesive thematic discussion throughout the album.
with only the rarest of exceptions, i don't care about lyrics

there are tons of horribly incorrect things you've said throughout your time here on RM. This is one of the most.

Seriously, they're nothing special at all
Only redeeming factor is the chorus lyrics changing up, I find that an interesting song-writing technique

I feel like when someone says backspacer it should have the Jason Vorhees theme music playing behind it

There's a wide gulf between "nothing special" and "horrid" though. They're solid imo.

No there isn't. Everything is amazing or cringe worthy.

It's technically uplifting, but in a much more successful way than Backspacer imo, and the way it lifts back into a solo is really good.

let the records play is the kind of unapologetic romp i actually don't mind the band indulging in, although mccready's wankery never fails to grate

Im not sure how McCreadys wankery can grate one that became a fan of PJ to begin with. Its always been there?
