I liked this when it came out, but I think I was mostly in denial about how meh it was. It's by far their worst album in my opinion -- the production is really uninteresting and lifeless and some of it is kinda corny.
For the longest time i kind of lumped it in with Backspacer as by far the bands two worst albums....then i gave these two my first back to back listen in years prior to Gigaton and i just thought Backspacer was significantly more enjoyable...still the bands two worst albums, but ever since then Lightning Bolt has been on its own as the bands studio album low point.

Yeah I had a similar experience when I relistened to them recently. Side 2 of LB is just ghastly, Yellow Moon aside. And actually I found Backspacer to be a much better album than I remembered. Though still clearly their second worst album by miles.
