OK, I must admit that I can no longer claim that 23 sucks - so, I"m moving in the right direction. But, I still don't think it is anywhere near great, nor anywhere near their capabilities. Thanks to a friend in this group, I re-listened to Anchorage and think it's one of the better ones. I even think Cobalt and Pangea are better than I had originally thought, but there is still too much on this album that I actively avoid listening to. One is Angel Threat, another is Sunken Sun.
I guess the main problem I have with 23, Univited, and the "should never have been released" Parallel is that since Forget Yourself, none of their songs have captivated me, with the exception of Block and perhaps Deadman.
I know everyone thinks I'm wrong, but 23 reminds me more of the 2 songs on AENT that I do not listen to: Reprieve and Invisible
I do, however, like them largely going back to 1 word song titles!!
But, couldn't they have come up with a better Album Title? Something, anything, but more than "untitled". Maybe they were thinking of Elton John's "This song has no title" on GYBR.
Make no mistake: I want to like this album. I would much listen to songs I like than listen songs I don't like.
