I don't like that the album is better or worse depending on which headphones you're listening with, but maybe that's not unprecedented.

Out of curiousity, since I'm in the market, what kind of headphones did you pick up Harmless?

LTRP, Getaway, Lightning Bolt, MYM, and Swallowed Whole all sound like they could be on Backspacer. I imagine it is due to production.

Infallible, Yellow Moon, Pendulum all sound like maybe they were trying to head in a different direction with the album until BoB got his hands on it.

Not sure I would all of the same songs in those categories, but I generally agree and I hope that next time they're a bit more defiant in going in their own direction, even if they ask him to produce it.

I think that's just more about who actually wrote the songs. Those are all Jeff songs aren't they? I can't remember if he wrote anything on Backspacer besides co-writing Got Some (I think). Maybe Backspacer would have benefitted from more Jeff. In fact, is that the album that he has the least amount of songs on.

Tuolumne wrote:A classic PJ track. I could never count how many times I've played this one, too much. It's got the grooviness and lock-in of bass and drums of new PJ and a classic sounding chorus and EdVed completely owning it. Can't believe this isn't a live staple.
