I agree with this, although that's sorta what I was saying. MoM have
never really done the same thing from album to album. There might be
hints of past stuff, and you can always feel that it's them, but I've
never felt like "Oh yeah, this is just like everything on..."
And yeah, Idiology is just crazy like that. It's pretty amazing how
they can pull off starting out with Actionist Respoke and end up with
Fantastic Analysis without a hitch. Great, great album.
