I thought they were going to do something in the vein of Hit to Death or Transmissions and they end up with something between Prince and Beck. Half assed album.

well I agree it's not their TOP album but it's more decent and engaging compared to any other guitar-rock kool crap albums that I've recenlty heard. +Saw them live recently and it was the most amazing experience of the year.The whole album works really well in a live situation. I disagree with the Prince/Beck stuff , it all depends on our pesonnal taste and knowledge in music I suppose.
