listening to this one. vinyl. First pressing so this thing has 20 years?

I think RA was my first vinyl from them maybe? Maybe not, maybe it was Ten.

Cant Keep, damn what a way to start an album. Those guitars, that fucking groove, Ed's voice. They are fucking floating.

Save You is awesome and i love it, but Ed is so restrained it kinda hurts the song. I wish he would just let go more on this one.

Matt and Jeff :heartbeat:

Always loved this song so much, but I've been hearing it different lately since recently seeing some band quotes comparing it to The Smiths' How Soon Is Now? Love that reference point and now I can't unhear it.

well i think Jeff and Mike were the first ones who talked about it when the album came out yeah. They also talked about Social Distortion on Down, and i totally see that.

I said Matt's fills specifically, which are constantly (but not always) basic af; if you think one nitpick of a single aspect of his drumming style that annoys me is a blanket character assassination, I don't know what to tell you

keeping time with sixteenth-notes is a really basic drumming skill
comment on matt keeping time with stone's guitar when the song is performed live. i thought that was obvious, given i quoted the post and it was the more recent comment. sorry i lost you sweety.

e.g. "Alive", which is more or less the same tempo and has so much opportunity for interesting pauses, accents, backbeats, and these straight gunshot fills make it sound so bland

matt's fills going into the "is something wrong she said..." bridge are some of his best moments.

I appreciated the second half of this album a lot more after I heard live versions of those songs. E.g. the version of Help Help from Mansfield 2003.07.02 is excellent and really made me love that song.

help help is one of the best songs on that album. i wished they played it more (and without boom); they could so much with an outro to it.
