I've decided anyone who doesn't like this album is bonkers!

Not that you carry much weight, but.... good for you for being so positive.

No.. trying to be positive about it, but it really bores me apart from SKON and DBE, which stands up to the best of their back catalogue. It's not terrible (apart from Balconies and Platitudes), it's just not particularly good.

Listened to it again yesterday, still sticking with Auto as the best song but Future is sneaking up.

I haven't listened to it in it's entirety that much, but I do think it is a really good album. For me, it's not as amazing or as exciting as JFPL was, but it feels like everything Send Away the Tigers should have been.

Personal favourites on the album are auto-intoxication, the future has been here forever, some kind of nothingness and it's not war.

Because it sounds like a band who have used up all their ideas. It sounds tired, jaded and quality control went out the window.
