and yes.
I'll take less expressive, climactic peaks if it means more sincerity and grasp of their emotional palette. This one is instant love for me, just like ageatis had been, and unlike anything that has occurred in between.
I think they lost grasp of their intentions and a reality check was long over due. And besides, I never liked how the depression-istas glommed onto the band with such possesiveness, that they did and would forevermore, speak of the infinite sorrows and pains of their hearts.
