As for me, okay ;)

The thing that bothers me is that on the MTV interview Stapp said he's on top of his game, as far as writing goes... comparing to Weathered where he claims was his best job...

Lyrically... Human Clay is far beyond Weathered and his solo effort so far. MOP is dead heat with HC as well.

Yeah, I'd have to agree with that. He probably just feels that he was most experience, lyrically, on Weathered. We all know that his best work, in our eyes, was on MOP. It should be interesting to see how his solo stuff, lyrically, compares to HC, Weathered and MOP. I guess we can't get too excited or worried until the CD comes out, or it gets leaked on some P2P network. We'll just have to wait and see.
