[kj] You guys are kind of bumming me out

[Leigh Newton]

I think Angel Dust was the last album FNM did where
they actually gave a shit. King For A Day sounds to me
like some idiot fanboy's skewed udea of what FNM were
all about (yeah, they do all these different styles of
music and scream and have lyrics about poo!). Album Of
The Year has a few great songs but you can practically
hear the ambivilance dripping off of that one. Both
albums just sound completely phoned in to me.
