this is what I feel too. the mastering is atrocious, but I genuinely like all the songs except Anything for You, which I hate with a passion because to me it still inexorably feels like a self rip-off of the infinitely superior Walk...

NO FUTURE and The Show Must Go On are absolute bangers. I love this album.
