Thanks to Stu for hooking this up.

This seems like something that would appeal to fans of that newest Liars record and The English Beat? At least this song "The Misfit". I don't know. This record is tripping me out. This is not at all what I imagine when I think of Oneida ...

Thoughts?

Is Happy New Year the song or the album?

Yeah, I've turned it off and deleted.

It's the album, Stone.

I didn't like it, but then I wouldn't. I'd give it a listen if I were you.

"Up With People" is awesome. I haven't given the rest of the album enough of a listen to make a proper judgment, but I like what I've heard.

Up With People: http://www.pitchforkmedia.com/article/t ... view/37034

RIYL: Dancing, Awesomeness, Dancy Liars, Slightly less accessible LCD Soundsystem

It's a great album. Not the most accessible thing in the world, but if you like Liars, I'd say give it a shot.

These dudes like to mindfuck. I'm glad they've lived up to their rep, at least on this board.

this is a strange record. i understand why people compare this to liars, but in the end i don't hear it. i'll have to spin it again some other time.

I don't hear Liars in the slightest. One thing this record is lacking is cohesiveness.

I didn't buy the last one, The Wedding. How does Happy New Year compare to that record?

I don't remember hearing Liars so much as detecting that this is even more ill-conceived.

Yeah, it's a super album. Grown on me a lot over the last couple of months. "Distress" and "Up with people" are probably my fav tracks. I can understand the comparisons with Liars though.
