I totally think HIFTBSO is just as good as their previous albums. I agree that lots
of it is good in a different way, but it was hardly "thrown together". Actually it was
anything but thrown together. If you've read interviews with them about the
songwriting process for that album, they said that is was incredible and that they
could have written 3 albums worth of material during that time period when they had
first gotten back together and started writing songs again. I dont see how one could
think those songs were merely thrown together. well, whatever.
