    I love  it. Moving  forward and new.lyrics  good. Only think matt could have done more. And maybe  stone.  But its good to me
    The drums are really bad. It's like they took that 20 seconds of Can't Deny Me where the drums are all processed and no instruments, the worst part of the song, and made the drums for the whole song sound that bad. Matt will play it better live. On real drums, hopefully. 
    Matt is playing the drums on the single though. 
    Yes, Stone explained how Matt played the drums “dry” to sound like a drum machine. But he is playing live, other than an electronic high hat
    Oh I'm sure it's him... love how it comes time for a fill and it's just snare. So not MFC. :lol: 
    Electronic high hat is what I don't like. EVERY pop and rap song and commercial has that tss tss tss tss bullshit sound on it the last two years. Hope it gets played on Matt's kit live. Otherwise we gonna have a Weezer Feels Like Summer instrument switcheroo for the new wave tune.

    First listen, really liking it. Huge fan of the Talking Heads.

    Verse to me is okay, but I love the chorus. I'm sure the verses will grow on me too with a few listens though

    I can appreciate the adventurousness but it never really lifts off and then meanders horribly in the back half. It’s like somebody gave them a rough description of Radiohead’s late 90s evolution and they decided to write a song with that in mind.


    I does get me more intrigued by the album. 
    Yes to this - just when you feel the song is about to pick up, it pumps the brakes and slows right down.  Teaser. 7 when it could have been a 9.  

    Good song though.  Maybe they’ll have a little quartet of backup singers during the last 1:30 that will do the jazz hands.

    It’s definitely different!  Has me VERY intrigued about the new record. This could be a huge change in PJ history. 

    Very talking heads/Bowie like. Moody, spacey and uh just different. I think I like it?  Or love it?  Wait maybe I’m gonna hate it?  I genuinely can’t tell yet

    As a fan of the Talking Heads, David Bowie, Depeche Mode...I approve of this song! It sounded great on the car stereo, I have no issue with them trying different styles of music. Its catchy, booming, and exciting! Bring on the album!

    Someone posted Sirius intro with Stone on YouTube. It’s pretty awesome. Started with Matt drum loop, then Stone adding bass. Jeff comes in later and adds keys. Mike comes in later adds guitar riff. Ed adds vocals and they put it all together. Matt went back and added real drums with exception of high hat loop.

    These dude made a recording of the song including Stone's intro from SiriusXM, worth a watch if you didn't here the Stone part:

    "Populated with every reject and cutthroat from Bombay to Calcutta. It's worse than Detroit."

    Isn’t this how the Beatles recorded at the end?

    I agree. Pretty sure I hate the drums though. :lol:

  • I love the fact that this started off as a drum loop, and then played with real drums that sounds like a drum machine

    Like, to me it is mixing the "play live and in the moment" with the wonderful world of electronic music and it pays off wonderfully
  • Damn so different but I love it.  Can’t wait to see how they do this live.  
    It's a festivus miracle!

    Well looks like we have our new standard opening song to replace Pendulum. Dance into a standard opener like Of the Girl or Release or Long Road? Yes please!

    I don’t think they did it this way because they can’t stand to be in the same room together if that’s what you’re getting at. I think it was just a cool way of making a song. Imagine the surprise/excitement when Matt/Stone came back in and they were like, oh shit, Jeff added a sweet fucking synth. And, no way, Mike just killed it on this guitar part, so bad ass. I thinks it more that kind of vibe. At least that’s what I am going with!

    I like the way you think!

    Imagine the lights go down, and you just see Matt Cameron walk up to the stage and start playing this drum beat.  Then Stone and Jeff with bass and keys, while blue cascading lights fill the crowd.  Then Mike with the funky guitar part while Ed walks on stage and begins - cue the crowd going crazy
