You seem quite angry about this song, tree.tree_ wrote:Wow, Strat.. do you even play guitar? Power chords, simple 4/4 drum beat... all super generic sound all around ...
man... Ed's voice is just so bad... is anyone in their circle listening to this? They really need to say something to Ed... wtf is he doing.. GRATING AF
Dude, I don't like this song either, but this post is just dumb and exposes just how much of a dumb troll you are.tree_ wrote:Wow, Strat.. do you even play guitar?

I assure you I'm not angry. I just can't believe you would call this song at all complex if you know anything about chord structure or guitar playing.Strat wrote:You seem quite angry about this song, tree.tree_ wrote:Wow, Strat.. do you even play guitar?

And oh god are they good live.
How many people will keep going to their concerts no matter how good/bad are their new records?
Sadly, they've become irrelevant studio wise.
PJ fans go to concerts almost entirely to absorb the magic of a "jamily" atmosphere now; I'm not saying that's a bad thing, I'm just saying that it's not the polished nature of the music that pulls them anymore, largely shown in the number of people who have seen them 50 times compared to any new fans they might be pulling in
I haven't seen them in the States, so I can't talk about that 'jamily' thing, but I usually see people way quieter and used to see them. I guess the experiences are entirely different.
I didnt say it was complex. I said its not as generic to me as others say it is. I dont care if a song is power chords. I dont care if its jazz chords. None of that fucking matters to me in the end. Nor does time signature. Complex does not equal good.tree_ wrote:I assure you I'm not angry.

What I love about this song is eds performance in that there doesnt seem to be a natural and typical song structure. Verse, chorus, verse, chorus, bridge, outro.
This song is all over the place. 1/2 of the jamily hates that. I love it. To me, the structure and layout of the song (and energy) is far more interesting than anything off the last two records.

See, you dummie, you're not getting my humor. That was my joke. I know he plays guitar, if I didn't I wouldn't have said that.

Yeah, the first song I learned on guitar was RVM. It's true and I agree complexity doesn't ultimately matter.Strat wrote:all pearl jam songs are easy to play on guitar. They've never been a complex or challenging band.
Did you know that probably 98% of their songs are power chords?
