Down the very bottom of the bands work.
It’s like they’ve given up or just can’t find that soul, urgency/magic or killer melodies/hooks any more.

It's not only you. I found the last two average, incomplete ideas for potentially good songs. Didn't like Decline and Fall at all, predictable cheese. Overall the quality of songs along with more than half of their output for the last decade has been exactly what I'd categorise as ranking at the bottom of their work.
Like you though, I am retaining some hope that the album contains some good songs. My hopes for TUVL were low after hearing Orwellian but I ended up really loving some of it.
