Some of this you could leave behind

Review Score: (6/10)
I've enjoyed this album, especially the first several tracks, but in all I find it less than inspired. "Beautiful Day" is a good anthem for appreciating life in the moment, and "Elevation" is a good rocking ride. I can sing along to "Stuck in a Moment ..." and "Walk On", but sometimes they bore me. Some rave reviews had me hoping "Leave Behind" would be as solid as Achtung Baby, but I for one was disappointed.
