I don't think it does really. Don't you think they (particularly maynard)
would deliberately choose songs that they (he) would feel are closer to their current state of mind? 10,000 days was 11 years ago. Not only has maynard stated in interviews he doesn't feel comfortable performing material that doesn't feel true to his current state of mind (referencing his statements about being eager to push the envelope with Aenima after touring heavily with Opiate/Undertow era material)... but if i recall correctly there was at least one interview or VIP session where Adam made mention that the new material was closer in spirit to Aenima era material than anything else. Perhaps maynard agrees and is attempting to channel that headspace he was in during that time period.
