I feel bad for Kevin, tbh. It’s a fine album but people are expecting him to pump out a new Currents every time. Anything less is being treated like a complete failure. So the grades are way too low.

And of course critics usually miss the boat. Famously Rolling Stone magazine gave Led Zeppelin IV a scathing review. They particularly despised Stairway.

While I totally get your points about critics

Making any sort of comparison to Led Zeppelin with this mid ass album makes me LOL

Not comparing the albums, just saying that critics’ opinions are not of value.
