I liked Undertow when it came out. But the whole thing has gotten so bloatedly overblown and pretentious I haven't been able to stand them in over 20 years....or more.
I read something the other day saying the new album is something like 90 mins long because they fill the gaps between songs with some weird industrial noise type sound. Sounds to me like a great album!!
My wife is good with a shit stir but doesn't take things as far as me. If it were me shit stirring her about some album like that I'd make a point of downloading it and playing it loud, but she is more diplomatic than me and just makes the comment.
