Too bad musicianship and JJ's transcendent voice is all veiled over with [...] -

- My Morning Jacket "Evil Urges"
"Evil Urges" by My Morning Jacket includes "Look At You", "Good Intentions" and "I'm Amazed" and has been acclaimed in some critical circles.

There are a couple decent tracks here but in general the song writing has taken a big step in the wrong direction. I'd happily give back the decent songs if they could make the truly awful ones go away as well.
