me too
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...
