All interesting points. I'd say Once is probably my favorite song on Ten. The music really sounds like MLB.

Oh man, "Once" is probably my least-favorite song on Ten. Maybe it's because of how much it sounds like MLB.

And its not so much the lower hurrdurr stuff, but when he belts it out he positively roars, with a voice strong enough to back it up. No one can really do it like he did. Its pure unrestrained emotion. Sometimes I prefer an unfiltered sound to a more nuanced one. One isn't really better than the other.

whatever is being expressed on those first two albums (first three, maybe, but Vitalogy is more complicated) HAD to get out--to the point that figuring out a way to express it trumped almost all other considerations.
I think that strict purist, emotionally charged place comes from 5 guys that are unsure if they'll get another real shot at making a record. It's that "We've got one shot, let's try to blow the doors off of this thing. What's our strong suits?"
