i way dig MM. i've liked MM since they changed from the spooky kids and had thier "first" album portrait of an american family, seen them 2x in concert, loved everything they did.

until this one. i'm not a fan of it. technically it is clean, spot on, well executed. but it seems a bit....sterile....there is some feeling missing.

the songs seem very overdramatic and theatrical, but a bit too "Brooding." they don't seem to have the energy and zazz (that's right, i used the word zazz) of previous songs, such as dope show, cake and sodomy, mobscene, etc.

no, i don't know a damn thing about music, but i know what i like. i have no problem with bands changing thier sound, MM changes each album. but this one, i'm not such a big fan of....perhaps if i keep listening to it i will eventually like it, but there isn't any songs on it that immediately "get" me...

what do you think about it?
