It gets singled out as their worst alot which I never understood as it is just like the green album with a little more feeling

#42

I mean it is ripped from Blast Off that he wrote in the early days but its unlistenable

#43

Nah, I love Hash Pipe. It’s a really good song to sing though and I am often a sucker for that. The chorus is so good.

Beverly Hills has its place and its 8 snakebites in an alt rock club, then its fun and has a nice stomp to it.

It’s not their worst song by any stretch. I mean HOW COULD IT BE?

Don’t hear the resemblance besides as similar pulse

Got to be the re-recorded single version of Keep Fishin’ though, so much better than on Maladroit.

#58

I think Pinkerton will stand up because there is a self awareness there, Rivers is not an aspirational character, he is singing about how flawed he is, and it ends with him apologising and withdrawing, the album is named after lieutenant Pinkerton a complete scumbag that rivers presumably relates too. Think it often gets talked about as just male self pity, but I think it’s deeper than that, seems to be also about him struggling with darker side of himself and that kind of honesty is rare, that’s what makes it a special album. Having said that across the sea is pretty cringe

#59

Across the Sea is such a great song but the lyrica…oof
