Amongst the Waves, and Unthought Known for that matter, are goods songs in my mind that don’t fit on Backspacer. Most of Backspacer is a sort of barely planned, almost rushed in my opinion, set of songs that perhaps aim to please through their immediacy. Those two are sort of the exceptions and would have fit perfectly on the more carefully curated, though admittedly average, Lightning Bolt.
Unthought Known still sucks.

When BS came out, it was my favorite song on the album, but it's fallen. The last time I heard it was probably like 3 years ago on Sirius and it just didn't hold up well for me. I think Got Some is pretty awesome though.

I still can't get on board with ATW either, or most of the album, or pretty much all of LB. There is maybe one ok album between the two.

Truth. Amongst the Waves is my favorite song from an album that I wouldn’t miss if I never heard it again. I like AtW and Johnny Guitar and that’s about it.

For me:

Great: Got Some
Good: Gonna See My Friends, The Fixer, Johnny Guitar, Just Breathe, Amongst the Waves, Unthought Known, Supersonic, Speed of Sound, Force of Nature, The End

Basically I don’t hate any songs on this album but I am not particularly in love with any of them save Got Some. I am still of the opinion that this is their weakest album, and that Lightning Bolt, while close, is a very slight step up in large part for Pendulum and a few others I honestly really enjoy from that album.
