Re: 11th album rumors and speculation
Binaural was released 19 years ago. I don’t think that was paint by numbers. I also don’t think Riot Act is paint by numbers save for a few songs. The self-titled album at the time was a departure for them insofar as nothing they made sounded like that in quite a few albums. That it informed their sound going forward only makes it “paint by numbers” in retrospect.Monkey_Driven wrote:Gonna See My Friend is blah, but the others are great.Chris_H_2 wrote:i like those songs. but there's nothing truly unique or dissimilar about them. they could easily fit on any record that they released after yield.tragabigzanda wrote:I'll champion the first four songs on Backspacer until my dying breathChris_H_2 wrote:when has this band ever veered away from a straightforward, paint-by-numbers album in the past 20 years?

I’ll add that there were significant differences between the self titled and Backspacer as well. The self-titles is really more stretched out with Mike McCready much more featured while Backspacer is a more punchy album for better or worse. Lightning Bolt kind of splits the difference between the two. That is probably their most paint by numbers album.
