Well, I've only listened to this about 3 times and I'm the type of person who could call an album shit/overrated/*insert appropriate insult here* (see Loveless and The Velvet Underground & Nico as prime examples) however I heard this album was brilliant, and Indie is my taste but I didn't get this album.. What am I missing?
As is the answer to probably most questions in this thread, maybe you're not missing anything and you just don't like it.

It's one of the first albums to incorporate emotional lyrics with hardcore music. In other words, one of the first emo albums.

I'd love to see your signature/links too, but the huge and obnoxious ones have caused me to block all signatures.
