    Just get rid of buckle up and add anything.  
    Will Buckle up ever be played live ?
    Buckle up is straight up garbage...It's their worst song since The Fixer.
    To each, their own. I love it.
    I LOVE MUSIC.

    Not hating on the tracks, and as a full start-to-finish play I'm loving it... but if you quizzed me on the tracklist after Seven O'Clock and before Retrograde I'd get 0% correct. 

    Also, for some reason I've associated/registered the "Buhhhhhckle uuuuppppppp" as the catch phrase to the pandemic horror movie of the past year.

    Buckle Up is in my top 5 on the album, partly because my 2 year old son won't listen to anything but the Beastie Boys and the first ten seconds of Buckle Up on repeat. He calls it the zoom zoom song and he rocks from one leg to the other over and over, with a little shimmy in between, then runs over to the turntable to reset the needle before Eddie starts singing. So the only thing I would change on Gigaton would be to add a Side D with the opening riff to Buckle Up repeated endlessly, it would make a 2 year old boy very happy, and we can all just rock from leg to leg humming zoom-zoom-zoom-zoom, zoom-zoom-zoom-zoom...

    "Take The Long Way" is probably my least favorite song on the album.  Don't hate it... I like Matt having a moment on the album, but I'm generally not a huge fan of his songs.  I think "Take the Long Way" is better than "Get Right" (should've been left off Riot Act) and "Evacuation" (should've been left off Binaural), but it's still probably my least favorite Gigaton track.
    You nailed it here...Matt is awesome but totally agree that song should not have made it over Can't Deny Me or Get It Back.  Take the Long Way is an instant skip and hard to listen to.  Evacuation is one of their worst songs ever and erks me almost as much as Bugs LOL

    But on a positive note, I actually really like Gigaton. I still can't believe they haven't been able to perform these songs for us and hope it happens this year. We are supposed to see both LA shows and the SD one too...please please let it happen. Oh, and Ohana fest most importantly!!
