Relapse 2 after the first was released.

Well that's pretty silly considering Em sounds very different every new album and they've already said Relapse 2 is totally different to the first one.
Said that he's going for songs and not one liners, he's supposedly dropped all 'accents' and is trying to make the perfect record.
Totally different aim / content now. So surely it's sensible to reserve judgement until you actually hear the material as the first one apparently is no indication to the 2nd now.
Not that I'm agreeing the 1st one was bad anyway, I love it but that's besides the point. Point is, whether you love or hate the 1st one, this 2nd one is supposedly very different anyway.
