Well one wonders how all these artists were able to put out great album after great album each year, and now you get 38 minutes after 3.5 years that sounds somewhat half-baked or undercooked.

At least now you're talking about the music, which is fine. Obviously people are going to be disappointed or enthusiastic about these things in turn, and I just never saw the value is spinning the disappointment into trivial matters of length or frequency or output, since none of that really has a whole lot to do with the work itself.
In Rainbows was 42 minutes. There's not much of a difference.
there are only eight of them (and none very long), exacerbates this.
Get your mind out of the fucking gutter, man.
You're soooo touchy about "length". tsk
In Rainbows is maybe my favorite album ever, so you won't get an argument from me.I think that only serves to show how much richer an album it is.
It sure doesn't feel only 42 minutes, and I don't mean that in a bad way.
House of Cards is the worst song on the album, just too long for such a meandering sound. I don't mind it, though.On the other hand, I could live without Nude, House of Cards and Videotape, which I find to all be varying degrees of terrible. And would be happier if it were just 7 songs long? Possibly. It goes both ways.
Jigsaw is my favourite song on the album
A trawl through message boards and social networks leaves the impression that many disappointed fans are still struggling to make sense of the gap between the greatness of the thing they got and the genius of the thing they thought they might get. It's in that gap, when assessing the album overall, that it's easy to get tangled up.
I feel like I'm in the vast minority right now.For what it's work
Jigsaw and Reckoner are the two best songs on IR.
