Listened to half of it. I'm disappointed. I appreciate it, but it's just too 'all over the place.'

Maybe after another couple of listens it will grow on me.

Just listened to the whole thing, got through it in one sitting without getting bored so that's +. Can't think of many albums I've managed to do that with.

I enjoyed how eclectic it was, probably only liked about 50% of it, but as a whole think it is pretty damn good.

I think they've made their songs too short. In the past they would repeat their ideas and expand on them before moving on, or they would return to an idea later in the song. On a first listen, it didn't seem like there was time for anything to sink in. I'll definitely give it another go though. Sometimes albums that take a few listens end up being the ones you really like and never get sick of.
