Biro the Leggy (B. Burnout) came before RiverRun as well but it's reworked to be on the album. Quality songs like 8 ball and Back in the Fears seem to usually get the backburner to the Ibiza "famous djs will play this!!!!" stuff (2 month off, crocodile) when it comes time to pick album tracks and most importantly singles.
Guess what I'm trying to say is, some of the better production work I've heard from these guys will only see the light of day as a crappy 192kbps mp3 and you can almost listen to those songs and tell they took longer to make than Crocodile would have. Why waste more energy on something that will be b-sided than the actual album tracks?
I think that the rest of the album will no doubt have songs that are in the same vein as the trippy RiverRun stuff and maybe after hearing those, I'll go, "
now I see why these were picked over Fears, etc" but right now I'm thinking....
"why didn't they just rework Fears into an eight minute epic instead of making a direct to video sequel to Two Months Off's shaker drums."
btw....I hated all four albums when I first heard them. Ha.
