It's true! The man has tapped in to SO much that he's bound to hit a dry
spot.
However, I do believe the "classics" are just that-CLASSIC. Especially,
"America Eats...." Take "If You Don't Like the Effects...," "A Joyful
Process," "Loose Booty," "Miss Lucifer's Love" and you've got more than most
bands will ever hope to achieve. As far as the new record, I'm not that
excited about the new stuff. The last - "Hey Man, Smell My Finger" - left me
cold.

just an opinion,
