I think this album has some winners and some clunkers. Where O'Brien pushes himself to the foreground, things feel forced, artificial and foreign. Where I don't hear his heavy hand, there's some magical stuff.

My sense is that this album is about 50% great, 50% shite. I haven't actually counted out the songs I like and dislike, etc. But what I like, I REALLY am liking and what I hate, I REALLY am hating. This is a bit of a bipolar album to me so far.

Sometimes I feel like I'm way too easy to please/impress. I find enjoyment in every single song here. :oops: Well, I won't complain about that.

First guess about ranking:
Top Tier:
Getaway
My Father's Son
Pendulum
Yellow Moon

Very Good Tier:
Mind Your Manners
Sirens
Lightning Bolt
Infallible
Swallowed Whole
Sleeping By Myself

Okay Tier:
Let The Records Play
Future Days
