I have to say upon the first few listens of WIM...I'm not entirely impressed.
The album (IMHO) is a bit of a let-down after a 4+ year wait from
Utopia Parkway. There are certainly stand out tracks ("Little Red Light"
and "No Better Place")...but as a whole the album doesn't seem as
strong in the songwriting department as their first two. BUT...they get
points for theme consistency by revisitng the lyrics about the office
worker with a drinking problem...and of course, FOW is better than most
drivel being put by the majors these days. If only the kids would get it...
