serenity now!

What's Jon Lovitz doing to that little Indian girl?

That's what I was referring to really. The whole thing can't possibly be anything other than an anti-climax.

John Lovitz is so great in "A League of Their Own"

It's people's own fault if they work themselves into a frenzy over this.

Good, bad, whatever - it's new Pearl Jam, I'm interested to hear it. I have no expectations.

my expectations are high, as they always are, but if I don't like the album as much as I'd like I'll live.

I like what I've heard so far (all 90 seconds). It is different. Eddie will be what makes it familiar.


Regardless, one song won't necessarily reveal the album as a whole. Riot Act is the album I like the least, and I am Mine is one of my favorite songs.

The Fixer was the only first single that I hated. If Mind Your Manners is worse than The Fixer...then we've got trouble.

it's there gonna be a music video for this thing?

It's new and I'm going to enjoy it till I feel it's necessary to critique it.

Yep, and hopefully the critiques are a long ways away

assuming that mym is the music starting at around the 1min mark of the 2013 tour video clip, what is that drum/cymbal noise/technique that starts at the 1:12 mark? matt cameron does this shit all the time live and it drives me up the wall...why the fuck does he over use that technique?

Yeah, I posted about that somewhere in this or the other thread. He's hitting 1/4 notes on the bell of the ride cymbal. It's a technique used often in progressive/metal music.

well its annoying.

I like it.
