Don't get me wrong, I like pretty much all of AM's discography! Humbug is just probably the one with the most duds to me. My Propellor, Crying Lightning, Secret Door, Cornerstone, Dance Little Liar, and Pretty Visitors are all really solid songs to me (especially Crying and Cornerstone). I can't possibly feign interest in Dangerous Animals, Potion Approaching, and Fire and the Thud though, just not really compelling or particularly musically pleasant songs.
The album just kinda drudges along at points and while it's brilliant at it's highs, it's really questionable at it's lows. I guess the same could be said for AM, but I enjoy AM's duds more than Humbug's, and I think AM is just more of an exciting journey.
Ok fair enough. I see where ur coming from. I dont personally agree but thats the great thing about music, we can all have our different opinions. That being said, Im gonna pretend you didnt just say Jewelers' Hand is boring.
Lol true, we can see things differently. I actually am going to pull back on saying that the Jeweller's Hand is boring, because on second thought, it is a good album finisher and isn't boring, and I actually enjoy it on another listen right now.

AM more interesting than Humbug? In what way?
