    Another band that does nothing for me I’ve tried to listen to their music! But I just can’t connect with it just heard the new song on my way to work I felt like I was standing still. 
    I definitely get it.  They have progressed as a band over the years.  I'm hoping they don't become the artsy lounge act that they are heading towards.

    Try this one.  If this doesn't move you I won't bother with others but if it does I can steer you in the right way.

    My 2 recommendations to new listeners would be Lost Art of Keeping a Secret and If I Had A Tail. Great songs that aren't too heavy, but have a great groove and are a fun listen.

    In The Fade

    If that doesn't hook you, just forget it.

    Sat by the Ocean and No One Knows are two very accessible songs.  They both have great grooves.  Josh is a sucker for a hook.  He could write pop music if he wanted.

    I preordered the blue vinyl. 
    I'll be waiting for your "I really shouldn't have, but I bought all color versions". lol
    I am out of room until I have time to deal with new shelving. So I am practicing restraint.


    leaning against walls works.....


    just saying.

    Yes. That is what I am doing now. I may grab a milk crate like I used in college until I get my new shelving set up. I have about 10 albums now that need a shelf. They are just leaning up against a wall on the floor. Not good.

    Monsters in the Parasol is my jam. Hard to find a cooler groove. Song just has cool written all over it.

    I Appear Missing has amazing craftsmanship about it. So does Ocean. But yeah their recent stuff isn't as bombastic and for want of a better word gnarly.
    Stars are suns to other people.

    Thanks. That will do for now. Those milk crates bring back college dorm memories. I think everyone kept their records in those or the wooden crates with slats. I may have had those as well.

    Album 1...Track 1...and 1 of their best songs (though I love every song they've put out, which I can't even say about Pearl Jam).
