I want to like it, I'm really trying to like it, and when that first song comes on, I'm head-bopping and into it. But after that I zone out and then realize I'm at song 6 and have no idea what I just listened to. I'm not giving up on it yet, but it's definitely "late-era JAMC" which I understand is entirely appropriate since they are late-era JAMC. It's just not the sound I'm looking to re-live.
Also, why in the hell do they use such a tinny-sounding drum machine?
It's so annoying how anemic and lackluster it sounds. Just shell out for a real drummer, goddammit. Losing Bobby (or anyone, really) on drums was the biggest mistake they ever made.
