Apr 20, 2013I keep trying to get into this album but I just can't. It was the same struggle I had with their last album too.
I'm also one that enjoyed Playing the Angel though (at least the first half for sure) and that album seems to be ignored by most fans on comment boards like this. -
Mar 30, 2013Sadly, I couldn't find one song from this album that I wanted to own. It just seemed lifeless. Nothing seemed to propel it forward or upwards. It's just sort of there... languishing.
Maybe it's brilliant & I just don't get it. Either way, I'll have to pass on this one. -

Apr 15, 2013Considering the odds, it shows an animated and still vigorous trio worthy of its semi-legendary status.
