    They should do an expanded Gigaton re-release with bonus tracks in Spring 2021, in advance of European tour, assuming humans will be able to congregate again (crossing fingers). This is too good of a record to have been lost in the public eye due to COVID release date. Cobble together 4-5 new tracks or B-Sides that didn't make the record and re-release it!

    I doubt there's any usable tracks that didn't make the record. There's a reason there haven't been any b-sides since Riot Act.

    There have been some good songs that could have been b-sides that came between then and now

    Exactly. If there's songs that made albums that could've been b-sides, that means there probably isn't any usable songs just laying around.

    I meant that there were enough left over that could have been b-sides. But were good enough to be on albums. I believe some that were meant for Backspacer were done for Lightning Bolt. But I could be wrong about that

    I dunno. Other than those Avocado demos and "Let It Ride" and "Cold Confession," I'm not aware of any additional songs.

    i always find it it funny that people equate "didn't make the record" with "bad song". sometimes it's a killer song that just doesn't fit with the vibe of the others. nothing to do with quality.

    IE:  Fatal.  Excellent song -- didn't make the record.

    Very solid list. Although Idles would be # 2 on mine.
