At least you can hear how unintelligible they are on PR.Kory wrote: ↑27 Jun 2019, 7:33pmI think the lyrics are way more intelligible on EW than PR.101Walterton wrote: ↑27 Jun 2019, 7:32pmYou can hear Joe on Trash CityHeston wrote: ↑27 Jun 2019, 7:29pmYeah, but Trash City as a song is better than everything on EW save for maybe one or two songs. You're right though, the production is very similar.Kory wrote: ↑27 Jun 2019, 7:17pmAll the songs on Permanent Record have worse production than Earthquake Weather, yet there doesn't seem to be any complaints there...Heston wrote: ↑27 Jun 2019, 6:38pm
I agree with you about the samey-ness of the song but I grew to like it a lot. The tune is also a total lift of "Doo Wah Diddy" by Manfred Mann but something about the song wins through in the end. I love the way it becomes more agitated as the song goes on and you end up with all this crazy percussion and stuff. The ending is also genius, this is why fade outs should be outlawed.

There's a tiny, tiny hopeful part of me that says you guys are running a Kaufmanesque long con on the board

The songs on PR are garage rock; they benefit from a less polished sound.Kory wrote: ↑27 Jun 2019, 7:17pmAll the songs on Permanent Record have worse production than Earthquake Weather, yet there doesn't seem to be any complaints there...Heston wrote: ↑27 Jun 2019, 6:38pmI agree with you about the samey-ness of the song but I grew to like it a lot.

Re: ROUND 4 - Permanent Record
I would argue every single vocal Joe song on PR is better than every single song on EW except Shouting Street, which sounds like it would fit on PR.
