Does anyone else like Recovering the Satellites more than August and Everything after or is that just me?

It's close, I randomly listened to the 1st 4 records on a road trip last week. The 1st 2 are just classics top to bottom. This Desert Life isn't not close behind. Hard Candy was actually really good too, just a little too shiny and a couple of songs just missed I thought.

I thought Saturday Nights and Sunday Mornings had it's moments.

I just can't get into the new record....And I've tried multiple times. I think the fact that it's getting compared to August and Everything After is insulting to August and Everything After. I do like Scarecrow, but overall he went too much for the rambling live Adam Duritz, but on a recording, and forgot to actually write an entire coherent song.

But new album aside, it doesn't take away their 90's prime. There's really not a song I dislike on the 1st 3 records.
