I can't not hear "Potato" on the second one there. I'm hoping that's just Ed describing the size of his dark matter.klvitalogy wrote:

Re: Dark Matter: Official Album Thread
Just had of my first listen of Running. This might go down as one of my all time disappointments in PJ history, only because of the teaser they gave us.
I was so in love with the clip which ended up being the bridge. The rest of the song is waaay too much Ole, and less of what I thought it was gonna be.
THEY KNEW THE BRIDGE WAS THE BEST PART. EVEN STONE SAID IT. THAT'S WHY THEY USED IT IN THE CLIPS.
How the FUCK did Watt not say " guys this should be the chorus " they could have done that chorus 3 times, with a huge build up at the end. Instead it's spritzy Ole. Why is this a single?
I'll say theres some interesting guitar stuff going on, and the outro solo was cool, but my disappointment over them not using that amazing bridge as the chorus just kills me right now.

if "control! control!" is a lyric, we might have a Joy Division shoutout
if "the bends" is a lyric, we might have a Radiohead shoutout

I think this might be pretty good. This song length is never a sweet spot for me, but the bridge is really cool and makes up a good percentage of the runtime, so that helps. But that's not to say the rest isn't solid. I think it'll grow. Can only manage two listens right now.

I’m with ya. I’d probably rank every song on Gigaton over this one. Maybe it will grow on me.Mike wrote:Right now I dont think I will be a big fan of this one
At least I’ll always have Gigaton!

It's an alright punk rock song.
I feel no disappointment but not overly impressed either.
Yeah, def better than Supersonic, no question about that

I like the faint count off before the guitars kick in. I bet it’s Watt.

Re: Dark Matter: Official Album Thread
this song is why I don't like "punk music"
even when it sounds good, it has a ceiling, it never sounds better (to me) than alright
