This is just one of the typical threads that pops up everytime a rock veteran releases an album. I still remember those threads when Depeche Mode, Pearl Jam and RHCP released their last albums. Everything gets compared to U2 nowadays. I guess it's because the fan base is so divided on their material. But really, come to think of it, the DM and RHCP releases had their own weaknesses. Everyone has their own weakness. The Pearl Jam album was pretty damn near perfect though! And this REM one is really good... but tis still early days yet! Let's see if it has staying power.
As for whether age is an excuse for producing sub par music, no it is not. BUT the problem here is that the band does not think they're producing sub par music. The band thinks HTDAAB is one of their best albums if not THE best. It's only one section of the fan base that is disappointed in the album. Meh. <-- to this whole thread!
