For those of us with multiple headphones, which ones are you listening with now?

My four year old (and every other four year old on the planet) is obsessed. This album gets played at least three times a day in my house. I’ve had to admit begrudgingly that it is genuinely excellent (along with 1989 and Midnights).

oh yeah, she's actually really great. I'm tired of her being EVERYWHERE but I can't deny her music is really good especially considering the usual pop that is everywhere. New album is OK so far

My 2 daughters are head over heels for this human being, my oldest’s other favorite is Florence + The Machine and she was soooooo happy this morning seeing they had a song together.

I just wish she would work with a different producer.

Yeah everything with Antonoff sounds the same.

Amazon HD> MMB2> Loki Mini> Asgard 3> Sundara's. A different and interesting side to Bowie.

Really love this band, sounds ripped straight from MySpace 2003. Screamo done right, definitely worth a listen if you have an affinity for that time at all. New album sounds great.

Reminds me of the Blood Brothers but a tad more accessible.

Just made a big cable purchase and trying to determine how to hide from my partner haha oh no. Happy Friday…

Finally... and this is definitively not a disappointment - it was worth waiting; maybe not as fresh as early Pearl Jam albums (since after all those years you kinda know what to expect) with amazing and so different from others Washington state originated bands in 80's and 90's vocals of Eddie Vader. His vocal is still a trademark after all those years.

First I've been listing to the complete album on my speaker setup. Now listening to it again on proper setup (and hearing a different things):

M-Scaler > TT2 > Envy Performance > T+A Solitaire P-SE

and what a sublime experience it is :) :) :)

Dark matter track known already from single release is not the only strong track on this album, but I do not want to spoil the fun for you to explore the complete album. It is very integral recording and I really like the layout of tracks.

What a great experience after Pearl Jam from 2024 to go back to 1994...

This shows how Soundgarden pushed all boundaries of grunge with Superunknown and why this is timeless album.

Sitting in dark room, looking at album artwork and enjoying Envy tubes light glow :) What a perfect evening.

No standouts on the new album that I can tell. All the tracks have pretty much same tempo and vibe. Reminds me of Evermore in that sense. But my take on this one might change as my kiddo asks me to put it on repeat every day for the next few weeks...

It has taken me all day to finish all 31 songs and it's quite disappointing. So is the Pearl Jam album, argh.

Cleansing my palette with Panopticon - The Rime of Memory on my FiiO M11 Plus ESS and IE900.
