As somebody who has listened to all of their albums extensively, I can tell you that Ultra Mono felt like a fluke. Crawler is a return to form.

I love ultra mono and this is the first time I've heard people have a problem with it. But imo they have no bad albums.

It's not a bad album per se, but I think they were trying to do too much at that time. Huge boom in popularity from Joy as an Act of Resistance, lots of touring, then going right into Ultra Mono. Maybe it's just me, but it felt rushed.

I can see that. Ultra Mono was my introduction so it was totally fresh for me.
