    I simply can't imagine a time when I'd put this disc on for pleasure listening, but considering Halloween is coming up, Burned Mind is the perfect thing if you want to scare the bejeebus out of the neighborhood children.
    • Metascore: 68

    In the end, this is a perfectly passable release if you need something to play in the background at your next cocktail party or if you're a dentist looking for something to play in the background.
    • Metascore: 66
    • Critic Score 38
    If you could imagine a cross between Wilco and Flaming Lips with just about everything challenging and interesting sucked out of it, it might sound something like this.
    • Metascore: 59
    • Critic Score 37
    If I want to hear something where a load of people are having a blast and making a racket by smashing styles together and singing silly songs, I'm gonna reach for The Go! Team. They're probably just as irreverent, but they're not nearly as annoying.
    • Metascore: 47
    • Critic Score 30
    The album is seriously frustrating.
    • Metascore: 63
    • Critic Score 20
    Even if the lyrical content is supposed to be ironic, it's still pretty horrible.
