I can certainly understand the criticism on this album. This is the first time i can actually hear such blatant references to past songs. I'm sure it's deliberately a retrospective of where they have been and not just 'getting lazy' but i trust the band to not 'be lazy' and don't really mind the band 'taking a break' as it were.
As for 'sloppiness' i like the sloppiness, I've missed it on recent albums and live shows have become been too 'clean' (esp in the RR tour which was a pretty dull show)
I had decided to not see them on this tour because i was 'soniced out'... this album and the promise of the new material being really good live have brought me back and looking forward to the show.
