ED really isn't that bad of an album.

I have to disagree with you on this. Until Big Whiskey was released...the band lost its way. Busted Stuff, while it released some of tLWS, it was toned downed (and we only got it bc the fans demanded it)...SU was a disaster (who replaces Carter with a drum machine)
It's more than just Ballard's fault...it's the whole bands...though none of them admit it.
I remember listening to ED...I didn't hate it, but it was radically different than BTCS...when I downloaded tLWS, which took hours back then, I was floored at what I was hearing. I was so angry that such awesome music was shelved for songs like I did it, fool to think, dreams of our fathers...
Like I said, it was a kick to the balls.
