No love for G?

Is there no love left for Gigaton?

When it first dropped, it was considered all kinds of great by general consensus, whereas now it’s often relegated to the bottom of fans’ lists and panned widely.

For those who still value it, what does it offer you? I’m in this camp and I love its emotional variability, from restless to aggrieved to defiant to triumphant. Clairvoyants made me so proud to be a fan as it showed they could break free of what was starting to feel formulaic in the previous two records. Indeed the whole record felt new and it became a great friend to me through the social isolation of the pandemic. I remember that warmly when I listen now.

And for those who no longer or never did find this record worthwhile, what contributes to your thoughts and feelings about it?
