So far here is my diagram of the reviews.

At first, it was described as its own, awesome album "Circiutal". But then it was described more as a "Two Halves".

I was debating whether or not to put the Chode Leak from March on there, but then I realized I wasn't sure where that should really go.

From what dillsnufus said, its seems a little softer though.

[Dillsnufus]

definitely isn't punchy rock blaring guitars. tho victory dance has little bit.  and live who knows

[mahg33ta]

real bummer to hear that it's slower, softer, not punch guitars, etc...

I'll wait until 5/31 but my real hope was that they boys pick up the pace... :(

[bold992006]

soft..and slow would be my description so far...not other way to really describe it...not nearly enough guitar for me.

[br00ke]

i actually really like the whole thing which surprises me .. i usually require a warm up / adjustment period but i really really like it love it. i can see alot of these songs are gonna rage when played live .. and also it'll be great to see how these songs will grow, mature, and come into their own after being on the road. i think & hope alot of you will be surprised how much you grow to love this album. also, i see alot of room for things to get loud & weird which i always love 



also .. listneing to moving away, whew !!! it takes me back to sitting right in front of JJ for the VH1 storytellers. i can close my eyes and feel it .. see it. great tune, the last two tracks are like a breeze you've been waiting for all damn day.

I am so ready for this album it's rediculous...I have decided to wait til I get the package on my doorstep and drop the needle to listen to it, even gonna try and avoid the NPR stream (i say that now). Aside from the 3 songs I have heard off of it, which are all vastly different, I cannot see a common thread through anyone's premature evaluations. That is pretty interesting/exciting.

some stray observations:
- TTF, At Dawn, ISM had like 5-6 slower songs so I'm not surprised that the album has slower paced tracks. Esp. with the laidback despcriptions of the album making process.
- I've totally let go of any preconceptions of this band; they have proved that they are gonna go different each time out, I am not thinking of the other albums when approaching this one, Circuital will obviously have its own identity which is really exciting.
- I'm saddened that after 3 years we can't all just agree that EU was a solid record. I love it. Maybe not more than the others but it certainly has its place and I believe its a really strong effort.

Agreed, Evil Urges is very solid and needs more love, it definitely has its place.  The guitars on Aluminum Park????? Come on now

agreed on both counts

I'm not sure how I feel about this leaking and the opportunity to listen.  Yes, I did purchase the deluxe set already so I know that at least I don't have to feel morally conflicted over it if I want to listen, but doing so knowing what the boys have done for us thus far (T5 realease each week building up to the Circuital single, a sneak peak at Black Metal, naming Roll Call after us--this has to be it) makes me feel really awkward about the whole thing.  What to do what to do.

Thanks ladies.....I have to say of all my trying to get people I know into MMJ, Evil Urges was the best and easiest selling point. I think it appealed to people more who didn't come to expect anything from the band and that it was varied, spacerockin, and somewhat accessible musically. However, I know it sounds good in my ears and that's what counts.

[el_chode]

My bet is that this is the album where Carl's stylings punch through, which explains some of the descriptions here. Going on Circuital alone, he's sort of got this Knopfler-meets-Neil Young feel.
