Grindy's spoiler gave me a good chuckle. I should've seen it coming, but didn't. And I can see how someone could listen to 'Lost in the Dream' and come away thinking it's bland. I mean, they're not exactly Mr. Bungle and they're also not pushing the envelope. I think it's good stuff though. Different strokes for different folks.
I wasn't looking for Mr. Bungle.
I'm actually on the lookout for some chill, groovy rock with a non-douchey vocalist. Something to listen to while driving a convertible down a scenic country road on a warm summer's eve.
Something fitting has been surprisingly hard to find.
At first I actually thought that TWOD was exactly what I was looking for but ultimately it didn't work out.
I came to really enjoy Dire Straits during my quest, so it's not like I can't stand a bit of bland.
