Well, to be fair, it's a 4.7 ( arbitrary decimal place) and it's pitchfork, who are all over the map as far as quality reviews go. But yeah, I think the reviewer is spot on here.

I keep listening to these songs and trying to admire the sounds and think about what sentiments they were going for. But the lyrics are so generic and juvenile that it's tough not to wish "what if R&K had kept these to themselves?". One track in the spirit of T2's themes is plenty and a curiousity maybe. Four is Overkill.
