I'll probably just listen to it on Spotify after work on a run then. What's disappointing you about it?

it sounds like everyone is sleepwalking through the songs. I don't even care if it's really technical sleepwalking that impresses everyone with just how technical it is, it's sleepwalking all the same.

More like a melding of YHF and Schmilco. It’s got the instrumentation of the former and the energy of the latter.
but the engagement of neither

This is such a bummer. Wilco was a big marker for me musically. Foxtrot came out my senior year in high school. Summerteeth and Being There still remind me of a particular summer job I had at the time.

I listened to Degradation Trip by Jerry Cantrell during my run instead of this.
