I'm pretty sure the author of the article didn't mean the sing sounds like Black...from what I gathered, Sirens evokes emotions in them similar to Black.
Ed...buddy...pal...stay true to your word and play Boise again.

I don't like it either. It has the whole '50's high school dance music feel.
I'm seeing Marty McFly up on stage just playing this song in Back to the Future.
Eddie! Eddie, it's Marvin. Your cousin, Marvin Vedder. You know that new sound you're looking for? Well, listen to this!
Each record is different - so its only logical the new record will have its own flavor. You folks fearing a sequel to Backspacer or wishing for Black II crack me up.

I dont fear a sequel to BS..... I fear another BS!!!!
And so you see, I have come to doubt All that I once held as true I stand alone without beliefs The only truth I know is you.

Nothing can or will ever compare to Black in the slightest
And nothing have to. Each song stands on its own.
These comparisons are just for the sake of reference. I like what they said about Mind Your Manners: it's just as heavy and fast as STBC, but lighter and different at the same time - what does that tell us??? Nothing. Sometimes I think they clunk all the "fast" and "slow" songs together. Like:
- Lukin is like STBC without heaviness but a bit faster (read: not like STBC at all).
Or
- Sirens is a piano piece with some guitars that is not like Just Breathe (which didn't have a piano btw) but more with a Black "vibe" (ok - wtf does that mean???)
I take it with a grain of salt and listen to it when it comes out. I am just stoked about the "piano" part (a song build around a piano is somewhat new for PJ), that Mike plays a major role in it and that the song is 5 minutes long. In short: I wad through the references and BS - enjoy it at the same time, for it gives me a direction but nothing more than that - and hear it when the song comes out.
Ps: what is it with this relentless hate against Backspacer - jeez.

Wasn't Come Back also compared to Black? Need I say more? Terrible....
Wasn't Black compared to Black before it came out...
Seriously, the band is in and therefore writes from a different place so it 's gonna be more BS than Ten if anything and nothing on BS was Ten to my ears. I just hope they go left field and drop a record with a few surprises. Going super hard sound wise (like the 1 2 pinch of Go and Animal) on Vs would be tasty but I don't think in it's their brief to do this anymore so I'll take something weird or spooky over just giving me another safe bet like a rocker opener. They have it on them to stretch, I'll give the guys that and I truly hope they challenge us.

No, it sucks in your opinion - that is the difference. And oh, also to look cool:
"...Dimitri...He talks to me...'.."The Ghost of Greece..".
"..That's One Happy Fuckin Ghost.."
“..That came up on the Pillow Case...This is for the Greek, With Our Apologies.....”

I'm not believing anything until we get an official announcement. For all we know, the whole "Sirens" and "Uke song" stuff was nothing but BS to begin with

I actually remember reading in one of the articles that came out after avocado was released and it said Comeback could be Black's cousin
Wasn't Black compared to Black before it came out...

pretty sad to see it leaking so early.

I agree. I'm not convinced by any of it.
Turned my world to black
Tattooed all I see
All that I am
All I'll be
New song sounds like Black?
My ass.
Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....
Remind me of that when we meet again..
Hard To Imagine
Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....
