Jesus Christ. Over 29 yrs as a band. Rather than be open minded, most are losing their shit. Nothing wrong with this song. Maybe it's not the song that's the problem.

I don't really hear backspacer per se - somewhere in between backspacer and avocado I guess. I wish it went even further in avocado's direction. But I think it's different from backspacer which was...cleaner? IDK.

Sounds like he's not even in the same room on top of it being a decidedly NOT face melting solo.

It's not a particularly memorable solo - it's probably the least interesting part of the song. Other than Lightning Bolt he hasn't pulled out too many interesting solos on the last few albums.

The solo's pretty bad. Time would have been better spent exploring the mood of the teaser clip more in the second half of the song.

It's no DOTC, that's for sure.

It's all over the place. Not sure about this one.

this is how Backspacer should have sounded and I'm OK with that

the "ba da da da" bits made me smile instead of hurl

I like the effects towards the end.

gotta listen more to decide how i feel about this. i’ve only listened once and when it started i was like “oh god no” but by then end was a little more on board.

Chris_H_2 · **Posted:** Tue February 18, 2020 5:22 am

I like that it ends

Ms Harmless · **Posted:** Tue February 18, 2020 5:22 am

the teaser clip is the most boring part

How does Mike do Dance and this?

Why/when did PJ decide pop punk was a sound they should attempt? Where did that horrific idea come from and why do they insist on continuing it?

I was actually quite happy with this. Sounds like they're having fun with it, and it's not one of their - 'Let's make a stadium anthem' songs

When have you ever heard an "anthem" that sounds like this? There isn't anything to even sing along to.

Yeah. I think the last third of the song is the strongest.

Yeah the end is the best part of the song, at least for now, much like DOTC. No fade out as well.

The song is so all over the place that I need some time to comprehend. Not a fan of the "lalala" stuff initially.

The first 2:20 is disheveled and forgettable. The last 1:30 is pretty good, and maybe better than pretty good.

What comes after this on the album?
(Still trying to hold out some hope for the overall record...)

let's see what they're saying on the Porch...

[takes a spin through a few pages of Porch reviews]

Welp, they mostly love it. Though we might pick up a few new members in the coming days...
