Default If you listen to just the first 0:25 of Doomsday Clock it's super kickass

What a shame

I mean of course ZG is still missing Iha's influence, but it'd be a decently listenable badass rock record if the vocals weren't so shit

you aren't wrong. that falling guitar note/wail is great.

then the lyrics come in and are as loud as the whole rest of the mix

I remember in 2007 putting Z on in the car and my parents being like wow that's a pretty good first song for a comeback record

I lied to myself for months and told myself it was a great comeback record.

Post Too Slow!

Doomsday Clock would be better if it was faster (like Jellybelly, Fuck You, or Tales of Scorched Earth) instead of just plodding along the way it does.

if you listen to only the first 25 seconds of the song, ignore the bad mastering and distortion on the drums, forget that the lyrics are about 'being lonely at the top', and imagine it with better musicians, melodies, production and performance, IT'S ACTUALLY A PRETTY GOOD SONG

I really think any and all discussion of tsp 2 should be taboo. a few quick perma ip bans and you'd have instant results. no one would mention anything post metro concert. it would be sublime.

For me TSP is 87-00. I've erased purged expectorated everything else. I am the master of my own density (I misspelled that on purpose thank you).

It was in a lot of ways. No one knew what to expect, and I completely expected them to jump on the emo bandwagon but then they return with this rip-roaring rock album. It was pretty dope. Of course it hasn't aged all that well because of the utter shit vocal performance. But it's a great album for what it is: a post-card to signify "we're back bitches"

That's it? It was one of the top grossing albums of the 90's... Like top 3.

But honestly, Doomsday does start off so radly. You expect Billy to come in with this intense nasaly high pitch cackle and then it's just like bored, slacker Pavement sounding vocals over it... Not really the vibe that one would expect for such a song.

I remember when BWBW first hit MTV. The next day, me and my friends were all "Did you see that shit? SO KEWL!" the next day in class.
