How often do you listen to Gigaton?

Matts3221

I listen to a song or two from it here and there

I always fall more in love with their songs live than album versions , if the 2020 tour had happened and I had some bootlegs I would most likely listen to the songs a lot more.

Enjoy every song on the album and still do not feel like there is a skippable song on it for me. I do not listen to it front to back anymore very often but when I get back to working out I will be.

First four songs occasionally. The rest are pretty much throw away. I am treating this album just as I did Lightning Bolt. I can't remember the last time I actually listened to LB in full. 

I think I'll do that today. It's been awhile. I might even be able to tolerate the Future Days.

I come back to it every few weeks. But there is a lot of new music out there to get through too. Only so much time.

how often? right now, determines nothing imo 

i played the heck out of it when it landed 30 days late

and before the tour it will be played a f'n whack more

many many great songs on the cd. glass way half full on this one

and i think someone said the new songs won't have any impact by the the time the tour re-starts... lol ...wtf?

hell no...the songs will be more massive .. having LIVED through this f'n mess and knowing/learning more 

everything has changed

Funny thing is as much I really don't like LB, I do think Future Days is one of the better songs on that record.

Many different songs get different reactions.
I like the first half of LB.  I don't listen past Swallowed Whole 
Those last four songs are not ones I seek to listen to.

Only song that I might decide to skip is Buckle Up depending on the day.

Daily. 

10 months from release date Gigaton is my favorite LP since Yield. 

So looking forward to hearing these songs live, especially Retrograde.  The last 90-120 seconds are my favorite of the record.  

Comes Then Goes is brilliant.  River Cross I love.  

Seven o Clock is a masterpiece and my appreciation of it grew after hearing Josh explain how it was put together like lego parts from a two hour jam. 

Quick Escape is another I’m really looking forward to live.  The guitar solo, base, and drums kick ass.

Weekly for me. It would be more but on a friend's recommendation I jumped down a Steven Wilson and Gavin Harrison era Porcupine Tree rabbit hole and got rather addicted to having those albums on repeat listen. Fortunately the repeat listenability of Gigaton is much higher than the last few albums and I do look forward to putting it on as opposed to giving LB a spin for the sake of it.

It's shelved but I'll come around to it again

The CD is still in my car, I’ve just been listening to different stuff.

The lyrics  to d.o.t.c are so profound in this climate. So apt

Haven't even thought about purchasing this release.

Hear this version yet? Pretty cool with the vocals mostly isolated.

When the Gigaton tour finally happens I want to be able to single along to every song on the album

My go to's are: who ever said, super blood wolf moon, quick escape, alright, never destination, comes then goes and retrograde.  The rest I pretty much skip.

I listen to Comes then Goes almost daily.....other than that I haven't listen to any of it for months.    Hard for me to get into honestly other than DOTC I like but just don't listen much.

I'll never listen to it in full again

After the first few listens I started cutting it to the first four songs.  I did mix in the full album probably 10-15 more times.  Now I am down to once in a while playing songs from the first three, maybe four cuts.
Hoping that seeing it live will bring some of the other songs around for me....

This is where I’m at as well...

This.

I listened to about half the album the other night, I realized I really only skip 4 songs (DOTC, Take the long way, Alright, Buckle Up) and enjoy the rest. I think I like this album more than I realized.
