Sounds very good.
And the vocals are a standout.
I’m hearing nuanced things in his delivery which couldn’t be heard in the bootleg

Wreckage is so much better than Long Way. This will get plays on rock radio AND lighter rock radio/adult contemporary stations. Dark Matter didn't really hit the latter too much.

Why would Ten be about Andy? Ed never knew him at all.

no longer care for. Sounds like a Tom Petty tune, but Petty was far more interesting than Ed will ever be, so...

Hoping for more rawk songs. My enjoyment of the album will likely depend on how often Matt and Jeff were allowed to BUST OUT. Ed can go have a shit as far as I'm concerned.

The band have spoken about how Ten was an outpouring of emotion in the wake of Andy’s death. At least for Stone and Jeff. Ten would have been cathartic to them in the way this album would be cathartic to the whole band, I’d imagine.

As opposed to Gigaton which was the album recorded most recently after Cornell’s death?

Ed himself said after Gigaton that he had not dealt with Chris’ passing. Just speculating. There seems to be a lot of loss happening, so probably not just Chris, but it had to be cathartic experience for the band to hear what Ed was writing about.

yeah it's not close. we can cease with the comparisons to long way; there is NO comparison.

wreckage is orders of magnitude better.

You’re REALLY wanting this to have happened.
