I agree, and after a few months I have found out my personal reason why I have in my mind that I don't like the album:

It's just too much of the same emotion. Almost every-freaking-song on the album is a depressive or angry song. Then a lot of songs are rock. I like rock, but not JUST rock. That's my main reason for not liking the album. When I think about listening to the album, my mind goes like "ungh...not ALL those depressive rock songs again!". While, in fact, those rock songs seperately are quite amazing. Just not all together. It's too much of the same thing.

My second reason is the interludes. Four interludes is simply too many. It is. Either make it a mini-album or a full album with full songs. My mind can't decide on this. I'm not sure why on this yet. But if I take out the interludes on my playlist I seem to have a larger urge to play the album... While the interludes themselves are pretty good, they just give a very cheap and empty feeling to me about the album.

@_@

I'm sad it got #2, too. It could have gotten #1 in any other week, as ^ said. That makes the album just a LITTLE less good for me too. (I have a weak for polls and stuff lol. I'm easily influenced.)

That's why I don't think GUILTY is that special as well. There are only ten songs and the album doesn't flow very good to me. When I'm getting into the mood of glitter/MY ALL, for example, there's a change and after a ballad the album ends. o_O It seemd a little rushed for me. I'd rather have a mini-album with 8 songs.
Anyway, I LOVE this album, but not much as most of her other ones ^^
