This album has aged very well for me. I listened on my walk into work and I couldn't believe how much I enjoyed it. The powerful guitars and Matt/Jeff are a big reason for it.
I've never liked "Swallowed Whole", just not my back and sounds like an outtake from Into The Wild.
Unpopular opinion, but I think "Sleeping By Myself" is one of the best songs on this album (which is my least favorite PJ album).
I do too. It's a good performance too.
Remember how pissed everyone was when the tracklist dropped and OH MY GOD THEY TOOK UP SUCH PRECIOUS SPACE WITH A FULL BAND VERSION OF SOME DUMB EDDIE VEDDER SONG THAT WE'VE HAD FOR LIKE EIGHT YEARS ALREADY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ?

Sleeping By Myself is a shit factory. It should never have been on the album. I may feel a bit less hostile towards it if it were a B-side or fan club single.

Getaway is a good song hidden in a terrible mix. Mind Your Manners is ok My Fathers's Son could be good with a better delivery from Ed and a less wordy lyrics Sirens is ok, deserved a better delivery too. Lightning Bolt is alright. Infalible has an awesome vers, a cool bridge, an awesome instrumental with a terrible chorus Pendulum is GOOD. Swalloed Whole is awful. Let The Records Play is fun, and I love the main riff and the instrumental. Sleeping By Myself is awful. Yellow moon is GREAT Future Days is terrible.
Still my least favorite album, the closer I have to be a bad album.
