But the main difference is his voice, no longer muffled in effects but spitting out Moleskines-worth of pain, disgust, anger, confusion, and music-geek inside jokes with clarity and presence.", "These songs rock with a fuzzy-yet-clear intensity; they retain their DIY spirit, but the focus is sharper, as are the hooks, even when songs stretch past the seven-minute mark.", "It’s fairly safe to say that the 12-track, 70-minute DENIAL is one of the most confident-sounding records ever made about depression, alcoholism, and self-defeat"
