I'm not too keen on the new song, mostly because of the falsetto, I guess. (But then again, the 2006 record "9" never quite clicked with me as "O" did, either)

The vocals in the first two voices are so much louder than it is when the drums come in. The vocals then take a back seat and get drowned out by everything else as it goes on.

5:29 seems to be squashed and nothing really stands out, sounds like it's working the compressor lots and the track becomes flat.

Love the song, but something isn't right to me
Maybe it's got something to do with Rubin's influence (but I'm not sure)? See here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rick_Ru...oudness_war.22
