Lightning Bolt, MYM, Getaway, Infallible, Pendulum are all cool tracks. Outside of that, I can take or leave the album. Definitely bottom of my album rankings, but still a decent effort. Hoping for better next time.
"...though my problems are meaningless....that don't make them go away...."
Just an ok album and not many of the songs translated well live so understandable why they have dumped these songs from the rotation. I think that both Getaway and Swallowed Whole are great tracks, but I've yet to hear a live version that impressed me. Infallible probably is a step behind those 2 for me on the album, but again, not great live. I think they do Pendulum, MYM and LB best live. Sirens clearly has become a challenge for Eddie with the upper range so I think that's why it disappeared. Maybe that and the polarizing response from the fans over it.
It's a hopeless situation...

I’ve heard the whole album in full. Was waiting for Let the Records play and got that in 2016.
I’m only ok with LB on the record, don’t care for the way that Eddie says “Booooolt” it’s kinda weird. I realized at Fenway that live I actually really like it. Love the outro. All that said, I’ve heard it 11 times out of 25 shows and 11 shows were pre 2013

I have a similar take, but would bump Swallowed Whole and Sirens up one notch. I know what you are saying about Yellow Moon. It's one of those songs I kind of like, but can also kind of annoy me where I don't know if I should skip it or just wait it out. I kind of like the music to it. Let The Records Play is one of those guilty pleasure songs for me where if I don't think about it much then I actually find it enjoyable to listen to. Overall with a fresh listen in my head, I guess this album isn't as bad as my memory was making it

Whoa! What? I think you are the first person I've seen call Yellow Moon great.
Yeah I really dig it for some reason. I think if it was on the first three albums it would be considered a classic. I love those end solos.
Totally. If not for that song, I would completely write off the last trio on that album. I never found Yellow Moon to be one that really made me excited to hear, but it's still good and way better than the shit (relatively speaking since no PJ song is shit) sandwich it is stuck in.
