Which album(s) did you anticipate for a long time, only to be a bit disappointed on release…but you then came back around and loved later on?

For me personally it was DOOM - Born Like This.

That album was years in the making. A big wait between Danger DOOM in 2005, until release of this album in 2009. Naturally I’m a huge DOOM fan.

I checked online daily for info and updates about the album. Got really disappointed when it got delayed for like 6 months. But then on release I didn’t love it as much as I thought I would do.

I did like it though, and obviously it had amazing tracks like Gazillion Ear / Absolutely, etc. But I felt it lacked the something special his earlier albums had in abundance. And I don’t think it was a case of me simply anticipating it so much that it could never have met my expectations.

I felt that way about it for a few years, and then suddenly it clicked (maybe around 2015) and I went through a period of playing it constantly. To this day I have no idea why it happened that way.

I love that album.

:blessed:
