Yeah, it's pretty vague. Translation of My Father's Son for example:
SONG 3 - MY FATHER'S SON
Mit "My Father's Son" lehnen sich Pearl Jam etwas zurück, lassen Luft zum Atmen, zeigen sich wehmütig verletzbar, aber gleichzeitig offen wie ein aufgeschlagenes Buch. In der Ruhe liegt die Kraft: ihr Songwriting strotzt weiter vor stichelnder Zackigkeit.
Pearl jam relax a little with My Fathers Son leaving air to breathe and showing themselves wistfully vulnerable but like an open book at the same time.
Strength lies in peace: Their songwriting is full of teasing snappishness. (I'm not even sure what that means. So don't be confused if it sounds even more stupid in english.)

Gremmie thinks the PJ camp intentionally leaked the fake track list with 'Where's the Sponge?,' for schitz and giggles.

They should leak the album for shits and giggles, then I'll be impressed.

That's another thing.
Are PJ really expecting journalists, of ALL people, to write a review based one one playback in a crowded (free booze)bar?
If that has been the MO to date, little wonder their records are so poorl received in the press over here.
But I guess journos only maybe listen to it once anyways.
Sad state of affairs.

At this point I'm famously behind what with the ten new pages in this thread every hour
It will have leaked and I won't even have noticed until I see you ranting about how shit it is or raving about how brilliant it is:)
We BETTER be getting a whole new thread once it's released.
This shit here is ridiculous.
Stip??

Well, journalists get invited to the same exclusive previews fans do. It sounds like the London one was more exclusive though, and the Amsterdam one was certainly more well-organised and easier to hear. The German one sounds like it was a mess.

I know all the London Pj crew (incl. Jason who helped out with pj20 for footage/interviews)
And they're all cool. Not a peep from them. But no word either from the monkey ball suckers either (Hinn)
Hehe
