I actually really enjoyed "Real Emotional Trash". Some of the lyrics are distractingly retarded, but it's been like that for a while, eh?
I was surprised at how dark some of the album sounds. And there's some nice surprising bits in there as well as some intricate guitar work that occassionally teeters on wankdom but is usually pretty reserved. The songwriting is probably the best Malkmus has done since Wowee Zowee.
Good album!
