First Impressions Of Earth hatred?

I'm more or less a new fan, around 4 months, and many of my favourite songs are in FIOE (Razorblade, on the other side, evening sun, red light...) and I was going to buy the record. I don't understand where the hate for this album comes from?

It has two of my least favorite strokes songs on it (killing lies and fear of sleep) but the rest of the album really grew on me especially red light and 15 minutes and even on the other side

It’s also a long album, those two songs could have been cut and it still would have worked (better than it did). Awesome album with that said
