Also, the songs are too ****ing long and do nothing to justify their length.

tl;dr: this album is tedious bull****
I'll give you the song lengths they can go on for a while, but I don't really mind. I almost think of it as a sludge pop album especially on songs like Grind. Personally I think this works to its benefit.
