Does not suck.

i hear some PJ fans say that new PJ over the years isn’t as strong as the first five albums.  Scared of Fear is so good lyrically.  Just wanted to give a shout out!

    I love Scared of Fear. I think it's biggest downfall is being the first track on such a strong album. It's a great song, but by the time one gets through Upper Hand & Waiting for Stevie, SOF is a distant memory.

    In my top tier of DM along with Waiting for Stevie, Upper Hand and Setting Sun. Great song!

    This is one of my favorites off DM. Would love to get it a little slower on this go around. The live version I heard in 2024 was too fast and discombobulated. The live version they played on the Stern appearance was great. It’s a banger and doesn’t need to be played at 1.5-2X the speeed of the album version.
