About halfway through this and digging it so far.
"The way you used to do" - in some way - reminds me a lot of PJ's "Got Some". Not that they're anything alike,... I like the idea of both of them, but they both suffer from the same thing: very thin, anemic production. TWYUTD could be so much bigger. Bigger drums, thumping bass, rocking swagger. Ah well.

Even with the better rip- just cant get into what you used to do, fortress, hideaway, and circumstance. I liked the ballads on clockwork, not this one. Evil has Landed is a mash up of the ocean and hots on for nowhere; and that is cool. Night Ranger wants their keyboards back Josh.

He's loving this album.
I know.
I finally got to put this thing on my home stereo.
And it really sounds great. I have no problem with Ronson's involvement. Seperation between instruments is really great.
Just listened to the official release and it does sound pretty great. Lovely separation. My only problem is the cymbal sound. Way too thin and processed.

TWYUTD is way better

Listened a couple times digitally and am now listening to the record.
It definitely has a distinct production that might turn a lot of people off. As of now, the approach works great on a couple of the songs but falls short on others. I do like my QOTSA to be meaty, heavy, and sexy....This album is thin in comparison to other queens albums.
So far there isn't anything that super grabs me. Nothing super sexy and potent that stands out. Some of the songs meander a bit too much but that might be due in part to only a couple listens.
The way you used to is still fantastic. Also, just saw an interview with Homme discussing that the claps during the song are done via a pedal from the drummer playing live along witht he band. No overdubs or click tracks on the claps. Cool.
