I mean... Jesus Christ, besides the hilarity of PRAMG Ed ragging on rich old dudes for being rich old dudes, while remaining in as much denial about his vocal abilities as he is his hairline, it just feels like this is a band completely devoid of any creativity, or quality control.

The last few records have had their hit and miss moments, and fair enough, its an 'Xmas Single' in March, which tells you everything you need to know about how little of a fuck these guys give, but this is just an embarrassment. You hear the 90s diehards crying that nothing sounds like Vs anymore, but I'd take a million Backspacer's over this garbage.

Opinions are like assholes and all that, and my love of PJ has been in decline for a few years, but it really feels like this is the end of the road for me.

Matt's return to Soundgarden showcased what he can really do, Jeff's solo output and RNDM stuff was on the spectrum of interesting to awesome, Mike's done some cool soundtrack stuff and Stone wrote a song about salmon, but, hell, it's Stone. I'm used to ragging on Eddie and I still believe he's the single biggest cause of the mediocrity of this band's once great output, but it doesn't even seem like the rest of them give half a fuck anymore. Spend 4 hours in a Studio hashing out a demo, punt it out, play a few stadium gigs so they can maximise the profit, save the need for a whole tour, then go back into hibernation for a year and go back to selling branded dog bowls to the inbred contingent of the Message Pit or whatever it's called these days. This is what it's come to.

i like you. we should hang out sometime, maybe get some ramen

While, on the surface, it seems odd for a group of old rich guys to scream with passion that an old rich guy is suppressing them, hating them, ignorant, etc... I think we need to remember that this band used to write a number of songs through the eyes of someone other than themselves. Deep, Why Go, Dissident, DAUGHTER, WMA... and I'm not thinking deeply so I'm sure there are a bunch more. It may sound like old rich guys ragging on an old rich guy... but it's coming from the place of our youth, our middle and poor classes, our WOMEN. When I look at it that way, it makes up for the thinning hair and voice. I like the FUCK YOU'ness of this song.

At 27, Floyd was in The Division Bell, The Stones had just wrapped the tour for Steel Wheels, Neil was approaching Sleeps with Angels, and Bruce was making The Rising.

The only apples to apples comparison here is The Stones circa Steel Wheels. Sounds about right.

The Who were in between It's Hard and Endless Wire

maybe that's a more apt comparison

But if the best song on the forthcoming album is "Can't Deny Me" it's going to be more akin to The Stones circa A Bigger Bang.
