"lazy songwriting" "sounds like shit"
It's just a collage of tracks, with no real context of how the songs will flow or anything! How can anyone actually judge how the songwriting is from 10 seconds of a song? What I heard was some cool riffs here or there, some sassy Thurston lyrics, some noise. Sounds like the same ol', same ol'. There was a kind of shocking part near the end, if my memory serves me correctly. The collage is kinda silly but also kinda cool. I dunno.

My sentiments exactly.
I didn't really feel anything. I felt a little excitement, since it's Sonic Youth, but it just sounded predictable. I suppose I expected something special this time around, not just Rather Ripped, part 2; but perhaps the collage is deceiving, and maybe the album is spectacular, but if it is then I don't see the purpose of having that clip collage, if it's only going to put people off and plant seeds of disappointment.
