Query: "v" makes me sad

i love live's music and lyrics but what they try to pawn off as substance in "v" comes across more like the manufactured pop/rock/punk that infects the current music scene. musically, "v" reminded me more of "punk" or "rock" stylings of blink182 or creed or any of the other bands that your can't tell apart from each other. lyrically, "v" is a sub-par outing for a writer that showed great artistic promise. ideologically, "v" gives the impression that live is just going through the motions. the musical, lyrical, and ideological progression of live has been an interesting journey. "v," though, is a pathetic shadow of the previous four albums.
