Surprised the user base doesn't like this more.

I think it's a big step forward from the last effort. Certainly doesn't feel stale anymore.

I thought this album was just okay, but I need to listen to it some more. I don't really care for the first two tracks- they don't suck, but they don't do anything for me at this point.

I'd say it's more of a sidestep for them.

It's literally not an ambient album. It has songs that are pretty ambient, but it's not a solely ambient album. It's more a pop/post rock album.

It is for me. Too "boring" for a normal listen but works nice as background enhancer.

This has lots of heavy drumming in it. If something's boring that doesn't automatically mean it's ambient.

this sounds like a really half-assed attempt to change up their sound

After many listens, I feel like this is pretty weak. I like the songs that rely on their previous formula as opposed to the experimentation. I don't think this is a bad release, but I've come to expect better output from these guys.
