God damn, so many songs on this album start out strong, really strong, but then drone on for 5-6 minutes until I'm twiddling my thumbs, waiting for them to end. Thankfully there's a lot of variety here, but when pretty much every song ends up becoming repetitive anyway that only helps in keeping the album boring rather than straight up torturous. I'm about halfway through my second listen and I'm having to start hitting the skip button. I want to like this way more than I do though, since most every song grabs my attention right out of the gate, and every time I hear one that takes a unique turn I think the album is about to redeem itself, but... bleh. I honestly don't have anything more to say.
