Admittedly, I broke one of my rules here. I didn’t even get through the entire album. I started with In Regards to Myself, and once I finished Salamarnir, I turned it off. While I listened to a few of the tracks over again, I never listened to anything after that.

I like ‘In Regards to Myself’ quite a bit, mainly because I find ‘Wake up!’ being screamed over and over to be rather an interesting hook, and ‘Salamarnir’ is okay, even if I’m not totally sure what it’s supposed to mean in the context of the album.

It was what was in between that turned me off, e.g. the utterly serious delivery of such lines as “Do you want to see me disappear? Well so do I!” Do lyrics get any more unintentionally funny? I’m not sure they do.

And after a while, it’s just noise to me - admittedly, I’m a fan of pop music, structure and an overly appealing sound - but it’s not like this is too hardcore for me. I can listen to it—I just find it dull and boring.

So, what’s the appeal? What’s good about this? Explain.
