What about when he makes another ocean analogy? That's pretty embarrassing to me.

Seriously. It's objectively one of their worst.
Sorry tree, it's actually objectively great.

Pearl Jam sound like absolute garbage on subpar speakers, mostly because of Ed. If you listen to a singer like Billie Eilish, it will sound good no matter how you're hearing it, because she's great.

It feels like it could be a crutch, and I raised my eyebrows at 'ocean' for sure the first time, but as a Jason Molina fan, who couldn't write a song without the moon/blues/owl/wolf/dark, I mean, I get a writer having certain tropes they're obsessed with.

I can picture you guys in your cubicles with your $1000 headphones, record player and vinyl really feeling every sound. "Debbie can you handle the next call and shut the lights off I gotta listen to this right".

I absolutely love I Am Mine. Fantastic riff, melody, solo, all of it.

Hey, I don’t listen to vinyl.

Sorry, I didn’t at all intend to mock you. My surprise/horror was genuine.
