I've had this sitting on the hard drive since it came out in Europe late last year - it's good, but in the same way that Freelance Whales are. It never fully commands my attention, but I listen to it a decent amount, and enjoy it a lot. I guess it appeals to me in the way that Fleet Foxes appealed to some people (despite my own total bafflement on the whole FF thing)

i like this. do they have two drummers? lots of nice, flammy clicks & clacks and all the parts seem really well thought out.

i need a new album. i need them to tour again. there's nothing not good about this group and it was really weird to never hear about them save for mostly passing mentions in college sales

want to try their 2006 album "orion way" when they were called cavil at rest

fauxmarc, Sunday, 14 August 2011 16:35 (fourteen years ago)

Listening to the new album, it seems everything they do, somebody else does way better.

really glad this is out - i've been waiting and dig it. can't wait to see them again in april

fauxmarc, Wednesday, 30 January 2013 16:39 (twelve years ago)

really, a new album. thanks for the heads up.

Bee OK, Thursday, 31 January 2013 03:01 (twelve years ago)

What's with the album cover? I guess they want it to look dated as soon as possible.

Evan, Thursday, 31 January 2013 21:26 (twelve years ago)

huh

fauxmarc, Friday, 1 February 2013 14:07 (twelve years ago)

Hip looking dudes goofin on the cover suggests disposable music to me.
