5.0 out of 5 stars
Fun, addictive, fantastic,
This review is from: Know Better Learn Faster (Audio CD)
It's like a funky sweater you might not like at first glance, or even the first time you try it on, but every time you slip into it, it gets more and more comfortable. Then you start noticing the little details and perhaps admiring them, and you start to warm up to it, and before you know it, you're humming it while you're grocery shopping, and the next time you hear it you realize you've somehow fallen in love.I just... can't understand how someone could listen to this more than three times and not think it's magical. Yeah, I think it is mostly about a breakup, but I've never heard such fun, sing-along breakup songs. I mean, you could play this album almost end to end at a low-key gathering and no one would bat an eyelash; it's not morose. And it's really not the subject matter but the tone and the attitude and the musicianship that make the album, in my opinion. This is definitely one of my top five albums of 2010. If I lost it, I wouldn't hesitate to buy it again; that should tell you something.
4.0 out of 5 stars
crisp, fun, electric!,
This review is from: Know Better Learn Faster (Audio CD)
Fantastic listen all the way through. I was very pleasantly surprised by this album. Great summer album or just a good driving record if you're in a cheerful up-beat mood.

This review is from: Know Better Learn Faster (Audio CD)
I love the first album (Brave...), and I'd give it 4 stars easy. Know Better has maybe 3 solid songs on it, such as Cool Yourself, Swam, and Know Better. The rest of it is just very weak. The songs didn't grow on me over time. "The Give" is annoying, and "Trouble Was For" has an incredibly tedious melody that makes you wish it would just end. The rest of the album doesn't do anything for me.The album has a more produced sound, if that makes sense, and seems to get away from the raw, solid content of the more bare tracks on the first album. Overall this was a huge disappointment for me, as I was really looking forward to it. Sorry Thao! Your stuff is great, but this album let me down :( But you were awesome at Troubadour in July 2008!
