Same here. Jerry wrote most of the songs, but it was Staley's haunting vocals that made AIC for me. With the newer stuff, it feels too much like Jerry's solo albums (slow and draggy) and I haven't been able to get into it. At other times it feels like the material is mostly Jerry's efforts, and that comes through in the tension of the work. It's almost as if Jerry is not comfortable enough to let DuVall have more influence, and you can feel it in the music.
