Not all that much, good album, it's just those damn synthetic drums.

I do. I like it a lot. Good songwriting. Some of the lyrics aren't that great though. Well. They don't always make that much sense anyway.

I don't even know where it is. I think my sister used it as a coaster once after laughing for like ten minutes at the front album cover picture.

I listened to it for the first time all the way through just last week. I've found that its good to read to? I like it more than I did when it came out... that isn't saying much... but I listen to tolovesomebody and camera eye every now and again.

If i'm in a certain mood, but that certain mood doesn't come around too often. Not a bad album overall, but the last half of the album suffers greatly.

Every time you skip a pumpkins song, Billy loses a piece of his soul.

I still listen to it at least once a week, not Corgans best album but there's nothing bad about trying something new once in a while. It has some really great songs scattered throughout.

i d/l'ed it when it first leaked. I honestly couldn't bring myself to buy it since i'd never listen to it (and still don't).

I haven't listened to it in the past couple weeks (been on a big TAFH kick lately), but its still been fairly constantly in the rotation since it came out. I've listened to it more than I ever listened to Adore.

I listen to it much more than I thought I would at first, but I had to go at liking it in a more cerebral way than I would normally listen to music--not because it's lyrically complex, by any means, but because its sound is a bit out of my normal comfort zone.

A lot of music I can just push play and enjoy without thinking about it much, but TFE seems to take more focus for me to get into--kind of like Beck's work. I like him a lot too, but I usually have to kind of force myself into listening to his releases about ten times before I can appreciate them.
