Anyone picking this up today? I got it this morning before work, but just got back from work, have it in now, sounds great so far.
I like the new single a lot (can't remember the name) -- didn't really care much for 'be yourself' a little boring I think.
I wasn't thrilled on my first listen unlike their first CD which was one of my favorite CDs of 2003-2004.
A lot of albums have come out the past month. Audislave is the only one I haven't listened to yet. Short reviews for all albums after first listen (which usually isn't enough): 1. Gorillaz (Demon Days) - One listen and it seemed okay, I think this one will sound better after more listens. 2. Stephen Malkmus (Face the Truth) - Don't like the weird songs...love the more convential ones. 3. Audioslave (Out of Exile) - TBD 4. Mercury Rev (The Secret Migration) - pleasant 5. Eels (Blinking Lights) - Love it! 6. Nine Inch Nails (With Teeth) - probably the most conventional NIN album...I like about 75% of it 7. Weezer (Make Believe) - sometimes good, but mostly embarassing. 8. The Raveonettes (Pretty in Black) - catchy 50's pop...mediocre 9. Spoon (Gimme Fictiong) - gets off to a great start - lost interest in the middle. Definitely one that needs repeated listens. 10. System of a Down (Mesmerize) - rocks better and louder than any album I've heard in a while...now if just their lyrics weren't so damn stupid. 11. Sleater-Kinney (The Woods) - I'd say so far this is the best one I've bought this month. The girls could teach 99% of male rock bands a thing or two.
