Title: On the slide
Product review: I was never able to warm up to this confusing album. It's pulling in too many directions, and is way too long. Also probably their darkest work, sometimes sounding like Tom Waits. Of course the playing is as good as ever, but it feels like the inspiration is lacking and they are just going through the motions. There are some highlights, and the long progressive epic is interesting, but again, lackluster when compared with Stardust We Are or The Truth Will Set You Free. This where I lost interest in this band. Anyway, they produced enough great music previously, so this messy album can be safely skipped except by the most avid FK collectors.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
