There's plenty to criticise about the band lately, but self-referencing is on the bottom of my list. As long as they don't do it badly, it's fine.

That would be a ridiculously long album. Riot Act is 54 minutes. And, that's a bit of a slog to listen to straight through.

I think anything "ridiculously quick" produced by Brendan O'Brien is going to be terrible.
