If I'm not going to enjoy an album I can tell before I've even completed the first play-through. The idea that I should listen to it in its entirety 2 more times before judging it is beyond idiotic.

Many great or complex albums improve with more listens, you pick new things up as you go, but an album that you flat out do not enjoy on the first listen isn't go to suddenly become good or great with repeat attempts to "get it."

And please stop acting like this album is deep enough to warrant that kind of treatment. This is simple, and I got everything I was going to get from it on my first listen. I say that as someone who enjoys it, despite being annoyed by how safe they played it.

"Even the new KsE is better than this..."

Ehhhh they're like the kings of not doing anything with their sound. I was bored two songs in. At least this band has only been on autopilot for two albums.

"Intothepit yes I have listened to A Thousand Suns about 12 times, happy to show you my media monkey play count. There are some absolute idiots on here, listen to an album 3 times and judge it, maybe you should stick to generic pop if you want something that hits straight away"



So I just need to listen to a Blood on the Dance Floor album a minimum of 10 times before I come to the conclusion that it's stinky ass garbage?

Hey moron, certain people don't need to listen to an album more then 3 times to get it especially something that is as generic and straightforward as this.

personally i think thirty listens are required to understand this incredibly layered, complex, experimental genericore album.

For real though the opening riff of Take What's Left is just a bad cover of The Sound of Truth.

theres trying to unpack layers and catch details and let something sink in, and then there's trying to force yourself to like something. what kind of dork has time to listen to an album he considers a 1 twelve times anyways? why would anyone willingly subject themselves to that when they can listen to something they like? what a cocknoggin.
