I don't think that's really fair. In general people have only been disliking them for one album (WTD), which only came out a few months ago. Versus 6 years of music. Give their new sound a chance. Clearly they're in the process of changing to a new sound, and you should wait to see what it is before you compare it against all of their other music. For that to be fair, you'd have to wait 6 years after WTD and compare all that music to all their old music. Not just one album against 6 years of music.
