    Some great songs on it but to me it was pj s first disappointing album. Love grievance, parting ways and really wished rival would get some more live play. However After the 98 tour and yield, 00 was def a let down.
    I'll ride the wave where it takes me......

    I remember telling friends (PJ buds) back in 2009 that this was my fav PJ album. The response I got was priceless. :). They were dumbfounded.

    Aw memories. :).

    Sitting here watching the Bucs lose to the Cubs listening to a bunch of Binaural tracks. Love this version of NAIS, and what does Stone have on his head.

    To me Binaural marked the end of them writing as a band and started the current trend with each person bringing in more finished ideas. Great album, but from Binaural on none can be compared to the first five albums.

    As the years go by, Binaural is furtively catching up to Yield for the title of "My Favorite."

    Spinning it right now. Other than Benny it is the best sounding album on vinyl. Start to finish it is awesome! God's Dice, NAIS, Of the Girl and Sleight of Hand are my favs.

    I keep telling myself that I need to listen to this again. Nothing on this album has ever excited me. Maybe I was in a different place than what this album was?

    I need to try again...

    Definitely took a long time for me to "get" this album. Definitely a headphone album. Definitely a head-scratcher as to why they left off Letter To The Dead and Fatal.

    Definitely had a blast going to 7 shows on the Binaural tour. Definitely love the 2000 bootlegs and Touring Band 2000.

    Dude, sit down with a good pair of headphones, crack open your favourite brew, and give it another go. sHIT this baby sounds bad ass on a good set of headphones. Ooooh maaaan :get_outta_here: If you have it on vinyl, then you are in for something trULy special! I did a trade on LD a few weeks back, trading my spare Binaural for a Blue Fixer. I can not wait to hear from the guy what he thinks of the record when he gets to kick back and enjoy it properly. This should be something any PJ fan does on a regular basis.... Now, listen to it mate! It only takes up about an hour of your life... hehe
