This album Fucking sucks
RM really needed this energy following the album’s release when people were weeping with joy.
Translation: "Oh sweet validation for my unpopular point of view." Kind of silly though, seeing as the little group of haters has been hating on it since that time as well as before that time, so, um, that energy was here if you looked under enough rocks.
I still weep with joy over this album. It's fucking great.

I like this album a lot, but at times things may have been a bit too cheerful. Could always use some darkness amongst the light.

Good to see this forum coming to its senses. Now that the hype has died down, we can view the album with an objective lens.
The conclusion is thus: a mediocre album that's a touch better than Lightning Bolt, but still bottom shelf PJ that will be forgotten about in a year.

I find no fault on this album still with song writing and choices they made from a performance standpoint. Pretty spotless there. It is admittedly the mixing of the drums that sounds synthetic as the only drag on this thing. If it were remixed to give the drums a more organic sound, this thing would be perfection for me.

Binaural has the worst 1-2-3 start to any album, hands down.
SoF and RR are mediocre/ decent - but Wreckage is great.
