UB40 Just keeps losing the groove

"I have been a UB40 fan since their first album. The last album from them that I liked was Rat in the Kitchen. This newest release continues the long line of uninspired mechanical reggae albums since then. The first track is pretty good, but it's all downhill from there. With so many amazing developments happening on the world stage, why can't these guys write a song with passion any more? Where is a "One in Ten" when you need it? Even a great instrumental like "Council House" would be welcome. And to think I spent money on tickets to see them live next month. Sigh."
