Lol I'm surprised there haven't been any fights about that statement yet. I feel like there would have been if Elph or Zhanthemi had said it.

I'm not more in love with the album that I haven't bought it on CD and probably wont either. I enjoy it but feel fine with knowing it's waiting for me on spotify if I wanna dive in. I get enough after just a couple songs too, but I feel like the album has some really attractive vibes.

I guess the album has plenty of that dark angst that probably spoke to most of us as teenagers. I've got Dir En Grey for that now, so it's not like it's lost all of it's appeal, but I'm mostly looking for other vibes in my music now. The cliché about mellowing out with age, basically.

EDIT: Listening to the album again, btw. The first track is pretty lame. But I like where the album goes after that.
