This album sounds just like I imagined it would, brilliant. I'm really digging the song "Elephants."

They miss the mark with you because you listen to sensitive souled american indie whiners.

I saw an advert for the album last night, and i have to say, the songs sounded rather "meh"

listen to a few all the way through before you make a judgement dude. If we based all out entertainment on the appeal of its commercial, I doubt that any of us would see or hear an awful lot.

Meeeeeh. I find most rock music that is around today rather lacking. If and when I can be arsed, I'll check'em out more thoroughly.
I'd prefer it if we got a new Foo album (not a "best of" shite). |

Oh my fucking god. Watching JPJ rock out like that makes me want to cum and cry at the same time. Total awe. How can be in even more awe of JPJ? Can't believe I walked past this, too smashed on Sailor Jerry's rum and various powders to notice. What a dick. Cannot fucking wait to catch them next month. |

The only thing that could make this cooler is if David Bowie were somehow involved.

Not sure where I've been the last six months, but I only heard about this last thursday. Picked the album up on Saturday. Can't get over how good this album is...from track 1-13...amazing!

So I was finally able to get past the first track just a few days ago. That first track is absolutely amazing. Easily my favorite of the album. But after finally listening to the entire album, I can say this...
JPJ was not needed. It is claerly a heavy collaboration between Homme and Grohl. Which is fine with me. The Songs For The Deaf album is a big favorite of mine. So I have no problem with this album's sound. I can listen to and understand Homme and Grohl's influence. But JPJ just takes a backseat in this album and it kinda sounds like he isn't needed. It sounds like the bass work in this album can be replaced by any "Pretty Good" bass player. Like nothing stands out and catches my attention. I thought all 3 would be able to show off their playing styles, but it's mostly Homme and Grohl. Which I'm fine with. I just think you can replace JPJ with any "pretty good" bass player of today and still acieve the same sound. |

I'm pretty sure JPJ must have been involved with the arrangements and the songwriting as well. Someone of his stature wouldn't just take a backseat.

You have to see them live to truly appreciate JPJ and Grohl. This album seems to showcase Homme the most, but live they're all equally amazing. Their Austin show was easily the best thing I've ever been witness to.

Yeah pretty sure JPJ wouldn't just play bass for a band without having some say as to the musical direction they're taking.

The bass player that played on TCV album, is good enough to have been the Led Zeppelin bassist based on that record.
He dry-bums a 12 string bass into submission during one song on that reading set. The man is a beast. He is still so good that watching that set got me all emotional with his still-the-fucking-king-ness. |

Yeah. It was on BBC3 a few weeks ago, so I expect there is a torrent for it now somewhere too.
They did a song on Johnathan Ross on friday, Mind Eraser, No Chaser. Just can't wait to go and see them. |

Found it!
Thank you, my rock brethren from England. I am getting the chills watching this. It's like 2 members of rock royalty, then JPJ as the god of rock he is. They know what the fuck they're doing. |

Went from 'liking this band a lot more' to 'I fucking love this band, and I want another CD now'. Dunno, it is just like, the perfect kind of music that I want to listen to right now. It rocks my face off, without being incoherent, yet there's a ton of intricacy in the music. It's just got a different sound, and I want more.
