This CD is the best 12 dollars I have ever spent in my entire life. After reading reviews for this CD I feel that I need to give my 2 cents, because it really is a 5* success. It seems like every time a band comes out with a new CD everyone feels this urge to say, "meh, its good, but not as good as BLAH BLAH BLAH. There are 11 songs on this CD and I absolutely LOVE 9 of them. It is a bit more polished than the self titled release of last year. Polished is GOOD people. It sounds so crisp and perfect. I absolutely LOVED the self-titled, and now I absolutely love this. They didn't change their sound, they perfected it. Lyrics are a bit darker. I like that though. See for yourself. Enjoy.

How did I not hear about these guys earlier? I'm glad I found them now. Nothing has moved me on the first listen since I first heard Neutral Milk Hotel's "In the Aeroplane Over the Sea." I would not compare the two albums in many other way's, however. I would describe it in this way, if the Decemberists had a baby with Trampled By Turtles, Then the Cave Singers had a baby with the Rural Alberta Advantage, and then those babies met and had a baby of their own. All

i can say is WOW !!! I LOVE THIS ALBUM already.

Man I dig this CD. It's an immediately likeable bit of Folk Rock that you'll be tapping your feet and bobbing your head to by the middle of the second song for sure. The music is almost hard, almost upbeat, with darker lyrics and almost wharbling lead vocals that don't grate the nerves but give the songs a certain kind of energy. This one has maintained a regular spot in my car's CD rotation since August of 2010, and it will for the forseeable future as well.

You'll probably like this one too. Give it a shot, it's well worth the $12 and change.
