it had its moments but generally a bit meh. Leave the indie lads and get back to the mariachi.

Agreed. They sounded like The Eagles or Crowded House on the last album. MOR pap. It's begging for a classic 'return to form'. Still great live every time though.
That stuff
didn't sound quite so bad interspersed with older material on the Iron & Wine tour but as an album it was just too much, or little, or something...
