Not really my speed.

Also not my speed

Deeply weird, but in like, kind of a good way

It's fine.

The vocal harmonies are nice and all but this album just about put me to sleep

Delightfully weird.

A lot of the vibe is like if you wrote/arranged a bunch of hip-hop tracks without actually rapping over them

...and he got famous making music like this?

I mean I already knew I liked Smashing Pumpkins, this is a good album.

a large portion of this album feels like rehashing one song with minor variations (compositionally, not lyrically)

More or less what I'd expect given the country and era. Not really my cuppa.

I don't really care for sob rock
