Honestly, my interest in exploring this band has run out, but this was the only new thing I had available in my car the other day.
Eh. In theory these guys doing a cover album could have been good, and I can't say why it isn't. But it isn't. Partly its that so many of the songs revolve around a repetitive hook, repeated again and again, which eventually sounds like The Fall, without the detached cool. De La Rocha does everything he can to kick all these songs up a notch, but it just doesnt do anything for me. What's changed? Maybe a band whose sincerity I already questioned doing covers just crossed some line. Will not likely revisit 2/5.
