Binaural Sequel?

october22

I'd like to begin by saying that these two pages have felt like twenty and you have all given me a headache. Besides PJ_Soul 'cause she's always right.

Binaural is my favorite PJ record so another similar to it would be awesome. Production, song writing, album art, lyrics...all of it.

I wish they'd release a special edition with the songs aremixed and all those great Lost Dogs (Sad, etc) included. Not sure if a remix would improve it (like I feel it improved Ten) since the problem (for me) with Binarual is the actual recording...not the mix. Guess I shouldn't get ahead of myself though since some sort of No Code/Yield thing is probably coming.

As an elitist Pearl Jam fan, and musician, a remix would ruin this record in my opinion. The production on all the tracks is unique & fitting to the songs.

I haven't listened to this album in a long while. I really like some of the songs, but as a whole...not my favorite. You've talked me into it...and away we go

I totally disagree. All the uptempo songs blow on the record. Breakerfall, gods dice, insignificance, grievance....they all sound like dog shit on the record but they're all great live. That "Binarual" recording technique only sounded alright on stuff like Of The Girl, NAIS, and Parting Ways. And even those aren't that great sounding.

B is for Binaural
I is for I don't know what any of you are talking about
N is for Ninkumpoop
A is for accidentally let the caffeine get the best of me again
U is for underlying love of supernova pictures
R is for rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrreally fuckin high on drugs
A is for anal
L is for look up. Look waayYYYYYYYY up. And you'll see a giant.

Ok, I'm an idiot...I still can't into Sleight of Hand though.

I'm not an expert by any means, but I think the drums on the up tempo tunes sound great.

I love those 3 opening songs.
I know a lot of people particularly dislike Evacuation. But I dig it.

Binaural has spent some time as my favorite PJ album. It's amazing, and yeah, I'd love another album that has that darker tone. But recently Riot Act has surpassed it and become my #1.

I agree.
