It's weird, this song feels more Pearl Jam than anything they've done since, maybe Riot Act - yet it's so fresh.

I'm really liking Ed's vocal delivery here... Some powerful Ten-esque growls and no Post Avocado screechiness. His vocals almost remind me of the re-recorded vocals on Brother and Alone off Lost Dogs.. An older Ed tapping into that young Ed intensity.


yes this

Matt's drumming made me cream

I can't remember the last time they brought the funk like that

DUCK WALK TIME

what is that harsh grating fast tremolo on the guitar that appears once in a while? it's amazing

they sound passionate, I'm all in


my only real crit is that 3.30 wasn't long enough, PJ have recently got this bad habit of giving us 2 bars of good instrumental stuff (intro, solo, etc.) when there should be four, or even eight


I want this to be longer so bad too. I would have loved to hear just that instrumental part before the chorus that we had the snippet from.

Agreed. That explains “heart” sounding like “hwaaarz” when Ed combines our and hearts

buy the single and you get a download with the instrumental with a cool Ed on the Arc machine opening.

Can almost feel McCready swinging that guitar around and squeezing the shit out of it during the solo.
