I can also agree with most of the comments here.
However, I think it's stronger than Hardwired. Or at least it seems after 2 or 3 listens. The songs are a bit of samey, but I think with a couple of more listens, some of them with grow more, some of them will fade out.
What I miss on last two records it "bite". I mean, if songs can slap they can bite, right?
Take for an example "All Nightmare Long". Now that songs bite. Now look at "Spit Out the Bone". It's aggressive but it sounds like it was written by AI, it's just missing that "oomph" factor. Same with a couple of songs here. They have the teeth but they don't bite.
Also, I've read this interview with James a couple of days prior the album release. It's a bit lengthy but definitely worth reading.

TBH, reading it made my expectation rose a bit higher. Bah.
