Yeah take it easy! I'm not defending Prick-n-a-Moron Jones or anything, but god almighty, seemed like you came pretty strong with the "WTF does that mean?" shit. I think everyone knows what he meant.

Shit, the feud ended and I had to take another sip.

The DVD with it, which I initially assumed to contain videos for three different songs, actually contains three different videos for the entire album!
Is Dadaismus here? I really think he'd love this!

I do kinda appreciate that they made room for prettiness on this one. The last track is real sweet.

Second of all, if I had posted as Mark W, I highly doubt you would have chosen to frame that mocking as some kind of girly musical/cultural squeamishness based on ignorance and fear of the strange.
With both of those things said, I dislike the album because I think it's boring and unadventurous. It sounds joyless and monotonous and uninspired, as if they bored even themselves to death while making it. The drumming and beats aren't actually all that unusual or interesting, the songs themselves lack dynamics of any kind, continuing in the same groove like a dull saw hacking at my brain. The vocals are lethargic and entirely grating, as are the harmonics and melodies. I'm just not sure what, if anything, I'm supposed to be taking away from this album. It's like a frictionless surface. I can't hold on to anything about it when it's done, nor do I particularly want to. It's all, "Yay! Drums and feedback and chanting exist!" Oh yeah? Then do something with them. Like yeah, all of that can make for a fantastic album, but only if you're really willing to really take those things to interesting places and not play it safe like kindergarteners with safety scissors.
But hey, I'll just be sitting over here with my copy of Tago Mago instead, fearing the strange like the little girl that I am.
