I'd say it's pretty good. Upon the first few listens I thought it was rather average, but the more I listened the more tracks started to stand out. The immediate favorite was Profanity prayers. I also like, Chemtrails, Modern guilt, Walls, Orphans is growing on me etc. It's the most cohesive album he's made in a while so you don't really get tired of it halfway through (unlike The Information or Guerro) but I can't say it's as good as his last. The first half of The Information was pretty spectacular (and immediate). Some have said this one is more akin to Sea change and I can see that, it does seem to be much more mellow than the previous two albums, which isn't really bad I guess because Danger mouse does his thing impeccably. I also can't help but feel that a lot of the material sounds kind of recycled (Youthless kinda sounds like Cellphone's dead no?).
So yeah, I vote Very good.
