I think the songcraft on SUNNY is pretty great across the board (except NIPPON, which is trash). My issue with it is the fact it feels like a collection of tracks rather than an album. Most of the tracks are pretty good (except NIPPON, which is trash), but they don't all really work as one cohesive whole. Borrowing from Jihad's post you linked to:

Right out of the gates after the intro track we have to address the elephant in the room with this record -- half of the record is odds and ends from the last 7 years. Sometimes the colorful context of this album breathes new life into these tracks. For the most part, they all fit the theme of the album and don’t sound too out of place, but some sound less thought out than the new tracks (except NIPPON, which is trash)
Also Chichinpuipui still bangs in K's whip.
