For those of you that spent more time with it, does the last four tracks finally come around with repeated listens? I can't imagine they do.
The last two tracks have never really caught on with me, but the 5th and 6th are both pretty good songs, especially "Because Tonight". Give 'em another shot, Hophead.

I quite like this album. It's hard to pinpoint who they really sound like. Sometimes they sound a little like Floyd, sometimes a little like The Beach Boys. And even though it's relatively eclectic, it's still a pretty smooth listen. Probably in my top three of the year right now.

The closer "Cedric's War" sounds like the Beach Boys covering Alice in Chains. It keeps getting worse upon repeated listens.

The last half of "Because Tonight" is good, but the first couple of minutes are a waste of time.
