It's not "easily and without question the worst".
Thanks for not reading the very next thing I posted, "IMHO."
It has the same rights as every other song on the album
I have no idea what this means.
and it's not any less DT.
It is to me. There is nothing distinctively DT about it. It is a song (again, like I mentioned, like Forsaken) that could have been done by anyone. Specifically, this song sounds like it could have been on one of JLB's last two solo albums. Both of which I love, but if I want to hear that, I will listen to them. When I want DT, I want something different.
That they explore new territory (which is always a good thing) doesn't mean it's not DT - and unlike A Rite of Passage, which was a cool but rather predictable and not very original heavy/prog metal song, Build Me Up, Break Me Down is quite unique and remarkable.
I see nothing unique or remarkable, and I see no new territory.
And it is a much more straightforward song than most on the album because it doesn't contain any technical/solo parts, but it's in no way simplistic or uninteresting. There's a LOT of awesome detail in the song and they clearly put far more effort into it than "let's just make a modern metal single".
I didn't say it was simplistic and there was no detail, and I didn't accuse them of putting no effort into it or accusing them of trying to make a modern metal single. What are you talking about? Why are you putting words in my mouth? Why are you working so hard to debate me on this?
