I considered first writing a huge rant, but then I realised that most of the problems I complained about were present in the early albums as well and I'm just a grumpy old fellow (despite my age ). Still, so long as someone's enjoying things this needn't be a total loss
I do enjoy some of the new material, but pretty much any kudos was outweighed by what I viewed as horrendous lyrics on the Green Album (why was Wet Leather even allowed to sit there?).
