Matthew Coute

Mike McCready is let loose, Cameron is a beast on this, Ament and Stone holding it together, Eddie highlights he’s the last one standing on Got to Give. Props to Watt for having them record this the old school way. Songs have good continuity. Best record since Yield. No Sleeping By Myself, Army Reserve, Let the Records Play, My Father’s Son, Buckle Up, Take the Long Way, Johnny Guitar, Speed of Sound, Parachutes, 1/2 Full, All or None, Rival, and Soon Forget which have been totally forced failures in the past 24 years. It’s get better with each listen. All songs can fit into their live shows. It will be interesting how they integrate these at the expense of classic songs. 5/5
