    Put a gun to my head and I’d say Alright - but I don’t hate it or anything.  

    Also - I was expecting Retrograde to be a standout based on early reviews but it hasn’t really clicked for me yet and, at this point, I doubt that it will.

    my least favourite is "Take The Long Way".   Its the only song I'm not crazy about.  I actually prefer "Can't Deny Me" .  I might be in the minority on this.

    I agree. Take the Long Way feels more like a tribute to Soundgarden and is a bit out of place for me. I want to start singing Spoonman every time it comes on.

    Now that you say that, I can totally put Spoonman in there and it works.
    It's a hopeless situation...

    Buckle up is awful to me
     Stone  is so talented yet  this song has one riff. And jeff doesnt have anything to go on. And the  lyrics to me are odd. The rest of the album i love.  Lyrically  genius

    There’s not a single song... nor single moment that I don’t like (nay - LOVE) on Gigaton. It’s among their best work.

    Buckle Up (sorry, Stone).  Doesn't seem to fit on this album.  Hate to say it, but Can't Deny Me would've fit better, and this would've been an interesting b-side.
    I've seen quite a few Pearl Jam shows.

    Buckle Up... the song just doesn't do anything for me.  I keep listening to it, hoping it will grow on me, but it just isn't at this point

    Take The Long Way or River Cross

  • Never Destination. They could write I’m that in their sleep. They have a dozen songs like it in their catalogue. Not sure we needed another one. Closest thing to a skip for me. Take the long way runner up.
