I remember vividly when No Code came out and ALOT of people didn't "get it" and thought they were trying to be U2 with Achtung Baby. Now its considered the HOLY GRAIL with the so called "real fans"...that still makes me chuckle. So I'm really curious to see where the album ranks in about 2-3 years.
Me personally, I'm enjoying it very much! Sorry for those who don't. Lastly, I know some people like the pissed off stuff, and MYM covers that, but in all reality they are millionaires now, especially Ed, he is listed at being worth $80 million, imagine! So for me he'd be a whiny rich asshole if he was just all pissed off still on every song/record. Stopped listening to Metallica a long time ago for that very reason.
I can't wait for the shows to rock my socks off!! Old, new and all in between...YEAH!!! \m/!!
I loved No Code from the beginning. Achtung Baby is one of the greatest albums of all time, possibly my favorite. Lightning Bolt shouldn't be compared to either of those. I don't hate the record, but I don't think this one will be revisited much in the future. It's a bore (and yes, I hear Matchbox 20 in it, sadly).
At this point, I'm not even sure what you people want. There is SO much going on on this album. Every listen unveils something else I didn't hear the last time.
I guess I haven't listened to Matchbox 20 in a long, long, long time.
everybody wants the most they can possibly get
for the least they could possibly do

Yeah, no kidding. When I read that I thought, "wow, maybe I need to start listening to Matchbox 20."
