  • Reminds me of the shift that Queens of the Stone Age went through heading into Like Clockwork and Villains. They were different, retro in some ways, new age in others, but still 100% QOTSA. This song and album will be the same, even if it's a new direction.

    Sounds like Arctic Monkeys. Def not much of the classic PJ sound.
  • Thumbs up. 

    Agree with everyone on the Bowie/Talking Heads influence. I hear some Killers in there as well.

    Eddie confuses me Around the “positive? Positive! POSITIVE!!” and they for sure could have found a better line than “out of this world.” Maybe we will get the meaning of that line somewhere down the road though
  • You Are, with all it's funkiness, is one of my fav songs by PJ though, so I'm already predisposed to dig it :)

    Definitely has a new sound-I like it though!  Has a Killers feel to it...

    Well, since I've always loved THs, I'm a fan of this, but I agree, very different.

    Burn your assumptions! Love is friction!

    How are they going to transition from this to Porch in concert?!

    Liked the music more than Ed’s vocals. The dad growl in the beginning was, meh. Thought I heard a line about boys take pills for their dicks lol. Was grooving at the end though.....

    I dig it too...was in need of anything refreshing after Can’t Deny Me, Ole, etc..I like Lightning Bolt, but it feels relatively safe in retrospect

    Was hoping it would get harder towards end, but I guess it’s kind of cool that it doesn’t.

    of things I’ve been listening to lately, I feel like it has a Wolf Parade vibe.

    really like the delivery of the vocals

    Love this a lot more than CDM. It's still growing on me but I think I'll like whatever new direction they're taking us with the album. I dig the tone of the song, it's a lot darker than most of LB imo. I just can't believe I have to wait at least a month for more music

  • I think that ultimately I am glad they are trying something new.  Lighting Bolt was essentially a revised Backspacer style and so to have something sonically new, for PJ in 2020 means they are a band still interested in evolving which is a very good sign to me.  They can write Lighting Bolts and Backspacers the rest of their career if they felt like coasting in a comfort zone, an 80s New Wave song from a 90s grunge band takes balls

    Listen, all I know is, if they don’t play Dirty Frank from the outro of this live, THEY ARE WASTING OUR TIME

    I don’t know. There are parts I like and it definitely sounds like Bowie or Talking Heads or something.  Well, everyone wanted experimentation.  You got it.

  • BK221359BK221359 Posts: 237
    I simply appreciate  that it is nothing I have ever heard before from them or anyone really...we will see where it goes album wise...is it representative of the entire Gigaton or not?  We wait and see...with great anticipation, which is much more positive than any other musical act that exists today...thank you PJ

    Im a huge David Byrne/TH fan, so i can get into it.  But I can see how some others might not like it.
    its different.  


    Tempers are wearing thin. Let's hope some robot doesn't kill everybody.
