'Engage With Your Shadow' > life itself.

OK, not really, but I was amazed when I heard that song.

I feel EWYS could have been immensely improved with some scary backing vocals from James!

Finally got round to listening to 'Rock 'n' Roll Genius'. It's not as bad as I'd been led to expect, but my god I do miss the days when they finished their b-sides. I've been getting into a lot of the EMG-era b-sides recently and it's telling that even the demos of most of those tracks sound more cared-for than 'RNRG' or the 'Acoustic Blue' version of 'LSE'.
