I was just listening to this album today after a long time. The problem with the album is the flow of it.

The first five songs are brilliant and flow perfectly then the flow of the album collapses. The only sub standard songs on the album are AALY and YHMFH but the whole second half the album is a mess. The songs taken on their own are perfectly great but one unit they don't work at all.

Great songs, not so great an album.

Oh, and the other big problem is the production. Way to over produced. Every song on the record sounds significantly better live (with the exception of LMBTL, OAN and AALY which wasn't properly played live). When they are fleshed out and stripped down they work so much better.
