Ugh, I just don't know...

After three spins I don't really think there's anything wrong with most of the songs really, though I only really love "Coffee Girl".

I'm not averse to musical change. I'm glad they went from a good bar band to what we heard on Day for Night and Fully Completely and Phantom Power, but this isn't progression. It's merely change which sounds like what Manic Street Preachers and other alt rock bands in Britain did THIRTEEN YEARS AGO, not really progression.

Also, why Bob Rock? All his sh-t is way too poppy and glossy.

I'm disappointed. I can see it growing on me, but I'm still a bit let down.

Kinda funny- I feel the same way, except "Coffee Girl" is my least favorite on the disc.

I certainly wouldn't rank this up with my favorite Hip albums, but I don't hate it, either. I was taken back by just how mellow it is.
