Persevere with the new album, definitely a grower. The production’s perhaps not as creative as some of their earlier stuff, but the songs are still very good.
And I have to respectfully disagree with your comments about the lyrics. I think it further cements Matt Johnson’s status as one of the best lyricists of the last 50 years. I accept he’s still talking about the same old stuff - but, hey, the world is arguably more fucked now than it was when he was writing about it in the 80/90’s so it’s still relevant!
