Seriously, they used to be so good. I think I listened to TNT everyday junior year of college. The new album is a pointless robo-rock jerk off. Pretty cover art, though.

    “Robo-rock jerk off”? C’mon, you’ve got to be kidding….there’s some really fantastic stuff on the new one. Not a huge departure for them, basically building on the Pro Tools stuff from Standards but there’s a real arc to the album as a whole. And how about that last track? (Yes, the artwork is fantastic. About time they did something interesting with the cover.)

  5. I agree I was harsh. I like *a few* of the songs. Overall, however, it’s a disappointment.
