    The solo in the middle of Amongst The Waves!! Takes the song to a whole other level, then Ed's vocals on the remainder of the song..WOW!

    I love Unthought Known, especially the part where Ed says:

    Feel the sky blanket you
    With gems and rhinestones!!!
    See the path cut by the moon
    For you to walk on

    chills...

    me too! and i can hardly explain that moment i heard "gems and rhinestones": "did he just say gems and rhinestones?!" - rewind - "he DID just say gems and rhinestones! who knew that phrase could sound amazing in a rock song!?" - only a real artist can make shit like that work so well. i wonder if anyone knows what i mean here.... but you said it right ... yup. chills. :)

    My favourite parts are:

    *How the album starts, really rocking

    *Just Breathe, great song.

    *The whole build up of Unknown Thought ( Starts of with a wishlist feel then really takes off )

    *All of Force of Nature! My favourite song on Backspacer =D

    *The End, great way to end the album.

    The opening track blew me away...could be one of my all time favs

    Johny Guitar is just SO differently put together. A real eye opener and I just dig the style

    Unthought Known and Force of Nature have huge potential

    At this early stage this album absolutely rocks
    I'll ride the wave where it takes me.

    fixed that for you.
    {if (work != 0) {
    work = work + 1;
    sleep = sleep - work * 10;}
    else if (work >= 0) {
    reality.equals(false);
    work = work +1;
    }system("pause");
    return 0;}

    After hearing it a few times through, I can't say there's much I'm not a fan of.

    Feels like they cut out the fat of that one or two tracks we get on previous albums.

    So nice. So different. The lyrics are amazing.

    Hung up on Just Breathe.

    The best part is the break in Unthought Known.

    After that:

    The sharp intake of breath at the end of The End.
    Mike's little solo at the end of Force of Nature.
    Chorus of Amongst the Waves.
    Ed's humming in Just Breathe.
    The frantic ending of Got Some just before Mike's solo.

    Hell, almost all of it. I don't understand why any PJ fan wouldn't like this record. Its amazing. Front to back.

    Except there aren't enough long-winded, experimental, spoken-word, deep, political, only I would understand it PJ elitist kind of stuff in there. Like Riot Act, because you know, that album rules and no one else get it. :roll:
