    So was our 2017 single really just a download of the first single a day early, and that counts as our 2017? Seems like we got the short end if that is the case, and they are desperate to not fall a whole year behind again.
    I think/hope this is their way of "resetting" everything, since they were so behind with 2016. Maybe this will give them a better chance to be more timely with the 2018 single?

    that artwork should have had a hashtag in front of Can't Deny Me on the sign. would have had a farther reaching impact I think.

    Okay... now they're saying it will be on the new album..... so their 2017 annual single is going to be their first single from the new album? Hmm.

     Well.... I hope Eddie's voice sounds better on the rest of the songs.

    The non-10C version is much more put together, polished, etc.

    The version on Google Play sounds the same to me as the one we downloaded Saturday. What are you hearing as a difference?

    The song from Saturday is the exact same as the song from last night. There is zero difference. If anything it’s bitrate thing.

    I pray this is not indicative of the new album.  Sounds like a pop band.  
    I don't know what you consider pop, but this is far from it.

    Art is subjective but I love that this song would have seemed out of place on Backspacer or Lightning Bolt.  Means the band is still pushing it and challenging themselves and their fans.  

    I agree with the commenters that Cant Deny Me is reminiscent of The Clash with channeling of Chris Cornell.

      
    True. 

    Something raw and garage-y would be interesting.
    It's been giving me a very Era Vulgeris vibe.

    Man, after the first listen on Saturday, I didn't really care for it.  After about the third listen, I'm really digging it.

    This single is not the holiday single.    Its an early download for 10C members. 
    This single WILL be on the new album.  
    The Holiday Single is still forthcoming.  
    The new album is still forthcoming.

    I can't believe this is really going to be on the new album. It sounds like something they could have written in a half hour. I'm just bummed they can't seem to reach down deep and at least try to approach the level of creativity they once had. But hey that's just my opinion. I'll still buy the new album and enjoy the shows but my level of excitement on new material is at an all time low.
    Most the old stuff was written really quickly. It's not about time spent on it. It's about whether it' good or not

    Black Sabbath's Paranoid was written in minutes and in haste because they felt the album's run-time was too short.  It became one of their greatest hits and album name.  I think when the creativity strikes, it's there and amount of time doesn't matter.  This PJ song musically sounds to me a lot like Big Wave but slowed down.  Similar in the way Severed Hand sounds like Porch.  I like this song.  Surprised at all the negativity.  A lot of negativity.  People keep coming to the same restaurant to keep complaining about the food.  One good thing about the current administration is they inspired the band to make another album.  I'm guessing not the happiness of the last two.  Hoping there is no spoken-word Bu$hleaguer type of stuff.  I'm sure they'll show a lot of depth as they have matured.  Looking forward to the release.
    Up here so high I start to shake, Up here so high the sky I scrape, I've no fear but for falling down, So look out below I am falling now, Falling down,...not staying down, Could’ve held me up, rather tear me down, Drown in the river

    Listening now..... :pensive: Hmm. Sounds the same to me... For a sec I thought maybe you were right, but I'm pretty sure that's my imagination driven by the power of your suggestion. :lol: Kay, I really want to like new music from them... and I will say now that I'm getting used to the song, and despite the strain in EV's voice and the cracking, which I will probably never be able to ignore ... the song is NOT making me think the album is going to be bad (for me). I think this song at the very least makes me think there is a 50/50 chance of it actually being good, at worst. And while that might seem negative to some people, it's actually not, given my feelings about their last two albums. I mean, this song is better than anything on Backspacer, and still better than most songs on LB. So that's something for sure. And yes, I admit that it does get better after a bunch of listens. I personally don't think any song should require that much work for it to be tolerable, at least not for me. That is not usually how I become attached to music.
    (anyway, I am aware that there are a LOT of fans who don't like this kind of discussion about anything PJ does - they prefer everyone to just love everything. But I think these kinds of considerations are exactly what a forum about a band is supposed to talk about, so I'm hoping folks can take this agonizing critical process among some fans for what it is: a reflection of the fact that we care about what this band does).

    Can you verify this? If true, they seemed to go out of their way to make us think it is the 2017 single, by labeling it "2017 ANNUAL SINGLE" in the downloads. Why would we think it is anything but the annual single was a 2-day head start on the first single for the album?
