I thought Kasper had another go at it or else it wasn't revealed who had remixed it. can't speak for other streaming, but spotify has (2017 Mix) and every track name ends with - Brendan O'Brien Mix. No kidding - I had no idea. Who knew. Mind blown. No wonder it sounds equally as shitty. there are two, the spotify mix ( really good) and the Brendan mix that got a physical released ( hate it) Ah, okay. I was thinking of the initial Spotify mix. I guess I lost track because there ain't no polishing that turd. |

I remember hearing the original 4 song(?) leak, I was super into it. I still think it’s a pretty good record. |

Could have been better than Gigaton/Riot Act, but something is a little off, from the production, to the sequencing, the lesser songs included, the artwork, the name of the album. Just not quite there. Still better than the next two albums. |

wow, I think this album is way better than Gigaton. But then Riot Act is so much stronger than both of them that it's like an entirely different conversation |

My PRAMG rankings go as follows: Gigaton S/T Backspacer Lightning Bolt At least proper studio albums. Not sure if we count Lost Dogs or PJ20 or Live on Ten Legs with those. Gigaton and s/T are relatively close but both way ahead of Backspacer and Lightning Bolt. |

I prefer Gigaton but ST remains as a favorite. Very good album. |

every year they top themselves ST had probably declined from its heights more than any other PJ album for me |

Each has some great high points (Riot Act arguably having more) and some misfires. In any event, they're both miles ahead of subsequent efforts. |
