Apparently Pitchfork liked it a lot, but their review makes it sound really generic and rock-y. Kinda like they tried to make a Stooges record but ended up with a Hives one instead.

It's an album. It will come out on several formats, one of which will be CD. It will also be available on iTunes and Vinyl. Hence, 'Album'.

I heard it is lame from some folks who generally know their stuff. I'm going to withold judgement until I hear it.

I thought an album was a thing where people put baby pictures.

To me it sounds somewhere in-between Drum's Not Dead and They Threw Us All in a Trench..

I definitely like it though.

Don't apologize. You're probably right anyway.

No, no, no, you're doing the music forum all wrong, Gregs. It goes something like this:

The majority has an opinion.

Kai has an opinion.

Kai's opinion differs from that of the majority.

Ergo, Kai is probably a witch.

Furthermore, Kai sinks.  Liars - Liars also sinks.  Hence Liars - Liars is also witch.  Good album too.

You're doing it wrong, you're a witch if you float :P if you sink (and die) you're innocent and can go free. Kinda.

Not a huge fan of Liars but always had a soft spot for 'em (very first band I ever saw live) and it's an improvement on 'Drum's Not Dead'.
