In Rainbows was obviously rushed, and I think even the band knew that it was so bad they couldn't consciously expect anyone to pay money for it. This album, while technically being a lot worse, at least it short and can be treated as a cold ambient record, since there's not a lot of cheesy rock riffs, like In Rainbows had in a few songs (is it just me or is the "Bodysnatchers" riff like a really bad Queens of the Stone Age riff?).
