I heard on the news this morning that not liking this album is a symptom of covid190

I think it’s just a reaction when the OP could have posted their review in the existing review thread but found the need to be a real troll and start a new thread to just piss people off. The guy wanted a reaction and they got it. Just a troll with nothing better to do.0

Agreed, it’s a troll job and everyone is feeding into it. Who cares about one dudes opinion of the album. If everyone else enjoys, go enjoy it.THEBIBLEISTEN said:I think it’s just a reaction when the OP could have posted their review in the existing review thread but found the need to be a real troll and start a new thread to just piss people off.

No way. If he wanted to be a troll he would have started this thread a minimum of 3 times.THEBIBLEISTEN said:I think it’s just a reaction when the OP could have posted their review in the existing review thread but found the need to be a real troll and start a new thread to just piss people off.

In what way is he a troll? He expressed his opinion, and did so in X sentences stating his opinion.Hawk123 said:

If that is trolling. Then so is every opinion ever by any poster on here about the album.
Don't be so over precious. This isn't the SEGA vs NINTENDO fight of the 90s. And you are not 12 years old."Mostly I think that people react sensitively because they know you’ve got a point"0 -
Because he made a separate thread instead of using the fanviews, and not one but two.Spiritual_Chaos said:THEBIBLEISTEN said:I think it’s just a reaction when the OP could have posted their review in the existing review thread but found the need to be a real troll and start a new thread to just piss people off.

75% of fans make seperate threads for any topic regarding this band. Whether it's tickets, new music or whatever. Trigger happyness and/or wanting your opinion out there isn't something new on here, and doesn't equate to trolling.Hawk123 said:

Chill, playing both Sonic and Mario is okey.
And Gigaton isn't a familymember to you that the OP has offended.Post edited by Spiritual_Chaos on"Mostly I think that people react sensitively because they know you’ve got a point"0 -

Lots of quarantine time for people to post separate threads for each song on the album. What’s next, threads for chorus lines?? Some of the songs are good, some bad. Everyone has an opinion.Spiritual_Chaos said:

I think someone should start a “Gigaton is just OK” thread.
not that I agree, but that way we can cover all bases in separate threads.0 -
Brian Fallon's lp is also fab I have to say. Was also out on Friday. Hes a great songwriter. 8 songs on it
i wish i wish i wish i wish, i guess it never stops0 -

Arguing over whether it is ok for the OP to create a separate thread is kinda silly. I wouldn’t have been reading what he posted unless it was right at the top. The only way I view the forum is by going to Recent Discussions every time. I don’t spend my life on here and know all the etiquette but it is one of the few sites I visit daily.The magic of the early records is they captured lightning in a bottle. Obviously the original songs are classics. The song writing on the first 5 records is great. Most of us became fans in the early years and were along for the ride as their style expanded. The first record that felt stale to me was Avacado. The Brendan O’Brien remix breathed much needed life into it.I think Josh Evans did a great job with this record capturing a lot of takes and moments that give these new songs life. DOTC is great, love who ever said and quick escape. (That meme above is hilarious.) These songs don’t sound overly rehearsed or stale on Gigaton. Like the song a lot but not sure why there are so many words crammed into the verses of 7 o’clock. At least the verses have life to them (it sounds like an early take of the vocals that wasn’t already sung over and over to get perfectly right). Never destination to me feels like a stage rocker similar to Lightning Bolt that they will have fun playing live. Take the long way is cool. Just would like another louder more powerful song somewhere near the back end of the record. I don’t have the patience to get through River Cross. Seems a little self indulgent. Like retrograde. All in all I like gigaton for me is their best since riot act. Funny how now songs like Green Disease which weren’t the highlight of the album back then now feel like amazing PJ songs when looking back over the last 18 years.4.17.94 Paramount 9.28.96 Randall's Island 8.25.00 Jones Beach 4.28.03 Spectrum 7.5.03 Camden 7.6.03 Camden 07.08.03 MSG 07.09.03 MSG 7.12.03 Hershey 7.14.03 Holmdel 6.12.08 Tampa 10.19.13 Brooklyn 4.11.16 Tampa 5.1.16 MSG 5.2.16 MSG 8.7.16 Fenway 9.2.18 Fenway 9.4.18 Fenway 9.11.22 MSG 9.16.22 Nashville 9.18.23 Austin 9.19.23 Austin 9.3.24 MSG 9.4.24 MSG Fenway 9.15.24 Fenway 9.17.24 Hollywood 4.24.25 Nashville 5.6.25 Nashville 5.8.250

Here’s a proper take. Love Brian and excited to see him on tour once things get back to normal. 😀eboweddie said:Brian Fallon's lp is also fab I have to say. Was also out on Friday.

That’s not because Green Disease is a great song, it’s because the songs after it were just not great (on the average, save for a couple of standout tracks on each album)CO278952 said:Arguing over whether it is ok for the OP to create a separate thread is kinda silly.

Why start a new thread just to put it down? There are plenty of others already started to state your opinion in.0
