Well I finally got around to listening to it on Spotify and first impressions are good. I want to give it a few more spins before I vote though, but I definitely wasn't bored.

Finally got around to getting this one yesterday because I might be going to see these guys next week. After one listen, my impression is that it seems decent but I'm not blown away by it. I could definitely see this one being a grower through.

I'm not blown away by it either, but it's enjoyable. It's a bit more straight-forward than the first two. A few songs are stand-outs but otherwise it's not too exciting.

And it's way, way, way more straight-forward than the third one.

I didn't like Anonymous very much at first, but it's grown on me, and it's really well produced. Definitely enjoyed that material live.

I have a weird relationship with that album that went something like this: I bought it when it came out, listened to it two or three times, thought "wow, this is really good," then never listened to it again until a couple days ago, when I thought "wow, I still like this, how come I never listen to it?" It's one of those weird cases where I like an album but never find myself in the mood to listen to it.
