New QOTSA record - any good?

[Taranta]

Have downloaded Like Clockwork but not listened to it yet, really hoping that it will not be a disappointment, anyone out there to reassure me its genius please?

I love it personally and it has pretty good reviews so far. Go for it!

I have also just purchased tickets to see them in Nov, I'm ridiculously excited for an oldie!

Yay, that's a relief, I hate it when my failsafe bands don't come up with the goods. Am going to get me tickets too, got to get a eyeful of J Homme in all his fearsome redheaded splendour, oh yes

No, it's overrated.
I used to love them but this record isn't anything special.

Planet Rock are hyping them up at the moment. I'm really disappointed.
