Helll of alot of compression! Could it be from the Rip? Gigaton kinda took care of that problem…are we there again?

Has to just be from the rip. No way

I've never ripped music from a CD in my life...Can you typically change the gain when doing that?

Alternatively, if this is done using internal routing -- like sending a streaming link to a DAW -- that is very easy to screw up if you don't know what you're doing.

This baffles me!

How ?

Strong opener 3, feels really weird for Dark Matter to follow these

Yes! It's everything a PJ rocker should be. Ed sounds great without even once needing to scream. I can imagine rocking out to this even 10 years from now. The bridge going back into the chorus, and then that outro just rules.

Enjoying Dark Matter more in the context of the album without it having the weight of being a single on its shoulders

Any links left??

Is Won't Tell Pearl Jam pop perfection?

I for one respect Trags dedication to his convictions and noticing things I never would on the sound

yes

Watt must have told Ed to stay up til 4AM drinking and smoking before recording the Setting Sun vocal....has a great hungover quality to it.

The Won't Tell-Upper Hand-Waiting For Stevie sequence stands upto any 3 song sequence in the catalogue, for me. So damn good.

The Scared of Fear-React/Respond 1-2 punch is also pretty great. Then, the album ends so strong with Got to Give-Setting Sun. Setting Sun is an all-timer for me, while it took a few listens to unlock the goodness in GtG.

Without a doubt
