    This song kicks ass!!!! Ya know, I don't think I've ever seen an appreciation thread for it. I was just thinking the other day how it seems like quite a few album openers such as this song, LAST EXIT and Breakerfall seem to get little to no love. I personally adore LAST EXIT but ALL of these songs kick ass imo.

    Brain Of J is definitely a rockin song! I love those drums, I love that catchy little guitar and how it goes along with Eddie's fierce yet sometimes high pitch voice. It's awesome!!! Overall this is one of those songs that reminds me of Ed's amazing ability with that voice of his. Raw screams, scratchy fierce singing, high pitch melodies, and then throwing in some gentle soothing vocals to just mix things up. I LOVE IT! The song just mixes it up...period. Mixes it up and rocks the hell out. Always gets me going...GREAT way to start a fuckin awesome album.


    BRAIN OF J ROCKS!!!!!! :D

    Good question. I think it's Matt.
    Will we ever hear anyone else talk
    during a concert? They should all
    thank us! Yeah, praise the fans,
    they'll chant. I can hear it now...

    Do they perfom this incredible song live?
    I never seen a bootleg with Brain of J on it...well actually I do not own a lot of boots. ^^
    I'm sure on some planet Good Charlotte's music is quite impressive, but their weak link is...this is earth.

    They did this song at Missoula!
    Great boot!!

    Yeh, it would have been Jack Irons, Matt Cameron only got involved during that tour, when Jack had to leave...
