The 'song' as you call it makes up half the album. This seems contradictory to me therefore.
 
One 5-star song + six 1-2 star songs isn't contradictory; even if the former is half of the album, the result is still an inconsistent 3-star mess. In fact, even if the title track lasted the whole album, it would still be just a good song and not a very great album (a bit samey no?)............

You called it 'immense' but wrote off the whole album as 'sh*t'. 3 star is a fair rating but 'sh*t' to me means 1 star for everything.That said I understand your point.

Okay yeah, so it's just quite poor towards the end, not sh*t, but not as good as Lizard in any case!
