For those who have heard the album, what is the one track where each member really shines? As in, Jordan's best track, JP's, etc...
Coming back to this, here's my short take on which members shine on each song:
-Untethered Angel: I don't know that any one band member stands out individually. This song is really kind of equal parts everybody. There are individual things to like, such as JP when he opens up the riff, for example. But I don't feel like the song individually really highlights any member in particular.
-Paralyzed: Riffy song. I give it to JP.
-Fall Into the Light: JP really shines on the instrumental section here in particular.
-Barstool Warrior: This one is tough. Not sure. I'll get back to you.
-Room 137: Mangini for sure. I mean, I kind of feel predisposed to give this one to him because he wrote the lyrics. But the drum groove absolutely drives this song.
-S2N: Myung, baby! Even aside from the solo bass intro, there is some pretty groovy bass going on throughout the entire song. Honorable mention to JP for his outro riff for Jordan's slidey solo. REALLY nice one.
-At Wit's End: As much instrumental chaos is going on in this song, I have to give this one to James. His emotional approach to the vocals is very appropriate to the subject matter. He covers a pretty broad spectrum here, and he does it well.
-Out of Reach: Jordan and James. Without question.
-Pale Blue Dot: Jordan, with JP and Mike being close behind. As I've said, this is definitely a guitar song, and definitely a heavy song. But the keyboard just drives everything.
-Viper King: Derek
