No, you summed it up quite well. And no, there is nothing "experimental" about this. In fact, that's a part of the problem. It's just... such a nonentity.

i'll probably be back in a month gushing about how much i love this band, knowing me.

I reckon though that it's all gonna click and I'm gonna love this album one day.

Liars are more like a happy medium to me and not 'difficult' to appreciate/enjoy at all!
I don't think this record fully delivers on it's promise as an album however (it's the "songs" mainly) but I'm glad I heard it, because they don't sound lazy, and DO sound like a band who could actually take rock forward to somewhere... and that's a bit of a rare quality right now.

Maybe it seems like an attempt at primitivism or naivity that comes across incredibly mannered and inauthentic & deliberately "ooh weird & childish" about it all (yes I know there's rockism in there).
By contrast (to the music) the fairly average male rock guy voices of Liars come across as oddly refreshing!
I very much doubt I've heard enough of AC's ouvre to be certain about all this though.

Has anybody heard the new Young People? I'm really digging it right now, it's a sister to Drum's Not Dead — carefully plotted, spare, lots of tribal thrumping, creepy vibey. The two records sound GREAT back-to-back.

that's funny. listening to it with people last night who hadn't heard it yet, the comments all were along the lines of "when did beck join black dice?" and "so, these guys have been hanging out with the animal collective, huh."

Really? Did not know that. That's worrying, then.
Is there a Philips Compact Disc logo anywhere on the packaging? And does anyone else have this issue? I was going to buy Drum's Not Dead over the weekend, but if it's at all copy-protected then I'm going straight to p2p.

not to get tech support on you but some exact details of how it's going unrecognised, error messages & such could be useful. also, do they have a forum or anything? I'd expect more than one person to have had this problem, you might want to look there.

I'm surprised you can't see the video files (got "show hidden files" unticked in tools>folder options?) but I've had problems myself on some discs being able to access multimedia stuff with obscure ways of presenting itself.
