I really like the album, but there are definitely some low points (“Palm Road”), and not as many high points as “At Mount Zoomer,” for me. “Ghost Pressure” had me hoping for some “Kissing the Beehive” shit, but most of the time on the album I’m only turning up messy guitars and noise (not a bad thing). I miss the pounding keyboards and howling, but the album’s still an interesting chaos, and sometimes it’s just straight fuck-you-rock-and-roll (“Cloud Mountain” comes to mind). The lyrics are less cryptic, but more fun, and a lot more interesting rhythmically (especially in “What Did My Lover Say”).
I DIG IT IS WHAT I’M TRYIN’ TO SAY I JUST DON’T KNOW HOW.
