Maitland is a good drummer too, or at the very least he fit the style of the band at the time
As for Harrison, I think one of my favorite moments of his is in the second verse of Cheating the Polygraph. The music dies down after the explosive chorus, and what you get is some incredibly detailed and nuanced soft drumming along with Wilson's jazzy guitar solo... amazing stuff right there

Nope, nothing pre-Stupid Dream yet, I should probably get to those before I veer off into Wilson's solo stuff though now that I think of it

Sky and Downstair are two of the best Tree records tbh. Nice spacey psych jammers (SMS is also blatant Floyd worship but it's real well done Floyd worship so I'm on board)

UtD is really good but not quite on the same level as those two
Stupid Dream takes a while to get into. I used to not like all that much until recently. NR and FOABP are best "modern" PT

"Did anyone else see that article where Wilson was talking a bunch of shit on Eddie Van Halen after he died, what an absolute bellend lmao"
Yeah, and Wolfgang was upset to hear it because this album is one of his favourites and Wilson is a big influence on him. Eventually they hugged it out on twitter, but Wilson says pretty dumb stuff about other guitarists sometimes. Guthrie had some interesting things to say about working with him.

he's repeatedly said over the years that he despises shredding, and then VH dies and people act shocked because he essentially said "eh, unbothered, wasn't a fan, shredding is for doodoo heads"

then he tucked his tail and called him an innovator and an extraordinary musician

Wasn't the Van Halen comment a response to an interview question, anyway? If he was going out of his way to make a social media statement just to be a contrarian ass that'd be one thing, but saying, "whatever, not my bag" to answer someone else's question seems like fair play

It was blown out of proportion, but still seemed pretty tactless for him to go into how vile he thought EVH's legacy was.

Oh did he rip it that hard? I never actually saw the quote lol

“I think that the legacy that he has, Eddie Van Halen, is in creating the shredder phenomenon, which is something so vile to me," Wilson explained. "That kind of idea that you play music almost like you're playing an Olympic sport is kind of anathema to my kind of ideas on creativity and music.”
He acknowledged that EVH was an innovator and more than just a guitarist, but still pretty tactless.
