    It's a good song. Don't act like you're not allowed to get excited. I like Gigaton too. It had flaws, but was better than the three preceding albums. And who the hell is Jeff Albertson? Don't throw insults. I may have overreacted a bit. I like the song. It was a bright spot.
    Dude, I wasn't even referring to you when I posted initially. Like I said, your reaction is totally reasonable. 
    I gather speed from you fucking with me.

    Wreckage is so flat,long ,monotone song and will be a killer mood live.
    I fear this too..  I think its going to kill the energy of the show if not placed perfectly in the set.    I love Seven O'clock, but I saw it live a few times and it kill the energy the shows had goin.  Well see.
    Not from where I was standing, but to each their own.

    WORST SONG?
    My Ranking (out of the songs I've heard  :|)
    1. Wreckage
    2. Running
    3. Dark Matter
    I have also heard the 30 second snippets.
    Wreckage is so flat,long ,monotone song and will be a killer mood live.
    its so good the lyrics tho..
    i heard full album,
    Why does everything have to be judged by live performances? Why can't you just enjoy it for what it is, which is one of their best songs from this part of their career. And yeah, I'm going to give Upper Hand and WFS a chance. Upper Hand sounds cool.
    because pj is known for their live shows.  If it doesn't translate live, then it doesn't get played and gets retired.  (hello getaway)
    Given how few cities they play anymore there are certainly lots of people for whom the album version is all they’ll ever hear though. Not every fan goes to shows.
    Even for those of us who go to a lot of shows, it's an every-couple-of-years or every-few-years thing. In the in-between time, the vast majority of the Pearl Jam I'm listening to is the studio recordings. 
    I gather speed from you fucking with me.

    the beginning of upper hand sounds like the beginning of where the streets have no name.

    The end of "Won't Tell" sounds like the end of "All I Want Is You." The chiming guitar part, specifically.

    I did like that one. I will have to listen for that when I get the album.

    I thought so too! A bit chimey/strummy. But then it shifted and sounded more like Pink Floyd. Then it went downhill, for me.

    Waiting For Stevie
    Setting Sun and Waiting For Stevie fighting it out for #1 at the moment.

    There's a handful of really good ones there though. It's a solid record.
    Come to send, not condescend...

    Buckle up is one of my least favorite pj songs.  Which is ok.  None of us need to like all of their work.  Wreckage is not anywhere near the bottom of my list. I think this song is great just like most of this album.  Can't wait to get my hands on this friday.
