Toxa · 05.15.2007, 03:14 PM

they are amazing.

Everyneurotic · 05.15.2007, 03:23 PM

yes, really good album.

nicfit · 05.15.2007, 03:44 PM

And amazing live band too, judging by the one and only live i heard.

atsonicpark · 05.15.2007, 03:45 PM

it's obviously good, everyone loves it, some of the pitch shifted vocal things feel a bit gimmicky and i prefer their ep's. but t's good.

schizophrenicroom · 05.15.2007, 04:09 PM

love it

seeing them live in june

Everyneurotic · 05.15.2007, 04:13 PM

at first, i didn't like the vocal effects and thought they ruined the album, but now i enjoy them and feel they are an important part of the sound of the record.

the eps, as much as i like them, feel really dated now for me, it's been more than a year since i played any one of them. frankly, i prefer don caballero to the eps.

_slavo_ · 05.16.2007, 02:32 AM

I love both EPs and the album as well. I think this band is truly genuine.

jimbrim · 05.16.2007, 04:17 AM

After i listened to the album for the first time, i didnt quite get it. i thought Braxton's vocal's seemed rather anoying. Now i've played it a few times ive grown to love it, but i agree its a huge progression from their first two EP's.

PAULYBEE2656 · 05.16.2007, 06:00 AM

album of the decade!!!
awesome album. love every little last bit of it. its been a long time since an album blew me away like this one did.......and they are playing dublin in 9 days.....

Now, that is a good reason to stop listening to their records

Massassinated · 05.22.2007, 11:24 AM

Very good album, one of the best releases in 2007 so far.

i didn't know whether to laugh or laugh hysterically.

i kinda wanted to play the indie snob card "you know, i've known them for 3 years now"
