Geoff should just quit the band and sell his wine and STOP dragging the rest his bandmates down. I'm just venting right now, but that's how I feel. Thank you for saving me some cash. I am done with the "Tricycle Ryche." Timid toddlers could write better music than this old and tired band from Seattle. In my opinion I think music releases in 2011 absolutely SUCK! Besides the new Blackfield nothing gives me a hard on to write a review on here and waste your time. I had to turn off the new Neal Morse and put on Iron Maiden "KILLERS!!" Each year that progresses seems to regress with high quality music! Looking forward to the new Van Halen album, then again I am 43.

I heard Get Started on XM radio last week, and couldn't even listen to it for 30 seconds. It was horrible. Pure shit. I love Operation: Mindcrime (only QR album I'm familiar with), and when I heard this song I couldn't believe that this was the same band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have expected you to hate this one, seeing as it's so much more "pop", I guess, than either of his first two records. It's not terrible, though, even though this is basically a label-forced album, not a Lupe record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason why it doesn't sound like the same band that made Mindcrime is because since Mindcrime II there have been outside writers and Geoff simply doesn't care what he sounds like anymore.
