    I don't mind it except for the "woah" part.  Sounds forced.

    If you are looking for music to wow you, I wouldn't be looking towards a band that has been around for 30+ years.
    My expectations nowadays is 2-3 good songs an album. 
    Why do you pay to belong to their fan club if you have such a low opinion of them?
    I gather speed from you fucking with me.

    No fan has to like every song a band puts out

    Sounds like a very generic 10 seconds of music.

    Who said anything about liking every song they put out? This is someone saying that they expect no more than 25 percent of the band's songs to be good.

    Do you have to send the band more money if you reach 26 percent?

    Could be great and sounds a bit sweet. But a lot of genre-hopping is often a bad sign, for an album feeling like someones random playlist more than an album with a strong production focus an vision.

    Earthling felt a bit like that. A wide array of random songs.

    Good explanation . 
    It got me thinking, this is the exact problem ive had with backspacer. L.B.  type of genre hopping is a great description because my fav pj albums are of the same pattern all the way through i feel.

    I don't have a low opinion of them. I think the band's output from Ten to Avocado is generally amazing to above average, give or it take a few songs.

    The last 3 albums? There's maybe a few songs per album I'd regularly listen to. I didn't think that's a minority opinion here or all that crazy.

    They definitely have more than that per album
    Gigaton had about 3 good songs. Backspacer and Lightning Bolt had about 4-5.

    I don’t mind genre hopping as long as it’s done well.  I like, maybe not love, what I hear from the snippet but gotta hear the whole thing to know for sure.
