I voted pretty good mainly for the reason that I didn't really agree with any of the other choices. I don't really care what anybody says, I liked Sam's Town just as much as Hot Fuss. They were both overplayed though and now I can't really bear to listen to either of them very often.

This one is different...some ways good, some bad. The return of the synths is definitely a good thing. I like the addition of some other instruments like the acoustic guitar on some tracks, brass, and the steel drums on "I Can't Stay". But I thought "Goodnight, Travel Well" was terrible. It drags on way too long and isn't really remotely interesting for most of the song. Can't say I liked "Dustland Fairytale" much either although a lot of people seem to love it. Sounds too much like a sequel to "When You Were Young."

I thought "Neon Tiger" was the best song of any of them, although at this point I can't say if it stacks up to their previous best. My first thought is no, but we'll see.

It's better then Sam's Town and Sawdust, but not Hot fuss, and "Human" sucks hard.

Pretty sure he means he got fined or something for illegal downloading.
