One of the spottiest albums I've ever listened to. There's some great adrenaline rushes, but it's also not very cohesive lyrically or musically.

One of my favorite albums ever. The guitar work, the mixing tricks, and the overall textures and feelings of this album are just so special to me. It takes a lot of good from a lot of existing stuff and puts it together in such a way it works. Their other albums have been alright but this one's just so special.

Very top-heavy, and dated subject matter in some places, but those highs are unstoppable.

Track picks
1. Like Eating Glass
2. Helicopter
4. Banquet
7. This Modern Love

Oh look, and album I very much know. I loved it on the first listen and for a long time, but I haven't had the desire to listen to it in a while. A lot of strong tracks, but I'm not sure if I know what the overall theme is in this album. Musically, I'd describe it as blink-182 done right. The drummer and guitarist are beasts. Still one of my favorites.
