No, you aren't allowed to enjoy it

Even if Infallible ultimately fells short on what its trying to achieve, i love the guitars...Their weird sound, kinda poppy is pretty cool specially for this album, which i find a little lackluster on how i would like the guitars to sound...Getaway being the first example of that.

I'm currently contemplating putting the album on.
Same. I might make a playlist so I have a chance of enjoying some of the songs.

No. Full report on LAL'ing LB or GTFO.

I fuckin adore the bridge in Yellow Moon...Always felt this one had a Vs kind of vibe..im not sure why...Maybe because its a mid tempo song but not entirely a ballad? I would fit in Yield too.

This was the closer track guys...

1. Pendulum
2. Getaway
3. My Father's Son

Getaway
Sleeping By Myself
Infallible
LB

LTRP

Listening to Yellow Moon right now, and I really, really like this one.
I do find Ed's vocals in the chorus a bit annoying.

The second solo would work a lot better as an outro.

Maybe RMMM does crazy things to people, but I just LAL'd to Lightning Bolt in this sequence and I actually really enjoyed it. It's probably been a year since I last listened through these songs and I liked this a lot more than I expected. WTF. There were a few cringy moments, Ed's vocals are noticeably too far forward, but overall it was fun listening to this.

Wait, where did you get the studio version of "Of the Earth"? I didn't even know we had that

We don't, that was a wishlist type thing.

I pulled that track list from the "Let's Re-Track Lightning Bolt" thread from shortly after the album was released. It was something I was pining for at the time.

Posted: **Mon March 20, 2017 6:56 am**

I'm halfway through a second listen.

Posted: **Mon March 20, 2017 7:11 am**

I'm wish I could say the same. I'll write more tomorrow.
