I wonder if they'll continue with the path set on the Red Album and have a mix of everyone singing.

I think this has hit potential. This is the song I was talking about. The Youtube collab.

That's kind of a shame but I guess enough people backlashed. I was hoping they'd switch it up a bit more. Get some multiple vocalists on each track, know what I mean? A little vocalist orgy action. |

Their mash-up of "Kids" and "Poker Face" is fantastic.

Don't take this the wrong way, but does anyone still care? Hey, both Pork and Beans and Troublemaker did exceptionally well on modern rock stations. Pork and Beans hit #1. It's only been 4 years since Beverly Hills, which was a pop hit. Hell, Maroon 5 took 5 years between their two albums. Yes, people still care. Go back to CHR. >:( |

I refreshed after the disappointing Red Album and thought it was actually better than I had previously given credit for. Still, there's a few or so songs I never really cared for and they've done a lot better.
I certainly wouldn't call Pinkerton "meh" in the least. I'm one of the few who actually enjoys Make Believe quite a bit but not even that touches Pinkerton.
I sort of hope they leave the all band members singing thing for the live shows. It actually is more interesting and good in that setting.

Pinkerton is now considered one of the greatest albums of the 90s by magazines such as Rolling Stone. I believe they just reissued it, too. |

I'd rank them
01. Pinkerton
02. Green Album
03. Maladroit
04. Blue Album
05. Make Believe
06. Red Album
That's not a knock against any of the albums, mind you, but I do feel that their latter albums have a bit of a slip in quality overall. Pinkerton I just rank top because Rivers puts out so much of himself emotionally in that album and you can hear it. Maladroit I think is also underrated and wasn't given a fair shake by a lot of people.
