I can see those. I prefer the backspacer track to everyone you listed though except for Amognst the Waves and maybe speed of sound (I'm not a huge help help fan either).

I don't see the JG-DF comparison at all. I fuckin hate DF though & I'm quite fond of JG...not hearing that one but the rest yeah I can kinda agree.

Pj have about 8 types of songs. This line up pretty much validates that idea.

I awssociate JG with Unemployable. I think it's the way the lyrics start.

Why do I bother... Notice the "better" in the title. Misleading much?

Anyways, when I'm doing this, I'm doing it by the instruments used and the tone of the music. Lyrical content and melody doesn't matter here...

Gonna See ~ Whipping
Got Some < Insignificance
The Fixer > Unemployable
Johnny Guitar >~ Cropduster (this is close)
Just Breathe >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Thumbing My Way
Amongst the Waves > In Hiding
Unthought Known ~ In My Tree
Supersonic >> Mankind
Speed of Sound > Indifference
Force of Nature >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Ghost
The End >>>>> All or None

Unthought Known reminds me more of Present Tense than anything.

Honestly i don't find many connections.

Amongst the Waves has parts that remind me of LBC and GTF.
Unthought Known reminds me of Wishlist in the beginning.
Supersonic has a Big Wave/Mankind feel.

The rest i feel stand alone pretty well from the PJ back catalog.

i definitely feel like Force of Nature and Unemployble are similar. I think I posted about it last night.

Gonna See My friend reminds me of Black Red Yellow. I don't love either track, but GSMF is better overall.

None of those songs are better except Given to Fly. Unemployable and Nothingman seem about equal.

Those are two very different songs.

i've always thought the same thing... and by always, i mean for the 10 days that i've known supersonic...

something about the vocal delivery (especially the first line) reminds me of comatose

I find it comical that some people are abbreviating this album as BS. Haha.

Gonna See My Friend - STP (probably something older)
Got Some - Devo
The Fixer - 80s mash-up
Johnny Guitar - Dire Straights
Just Breathe - into the wild
Amongst The Waves - old PJ
Unthought Known - 80s sitcom
Supersonic - Ramones
Speed of Sound - Meatloaf
Force of Nature - U2? Springsteen?
The End - into the wild

people want a concept album, this album almost is an 80s concept album (with a little early 90s).
