I've heard this album floated around as AOTY by several folks, and I've given it a good 6-7 listens, trying to figure out what I'm missing. Look, it's a decent album. But you can take any element of it and point to other bands doing it slightly better ...

And there is musical talent there, buckets of it. You have to be in the right mood though.
