Yep, I agree, I love it. I was a little worried after I saw a couple of reviews saying it was derivative and boring, but one listen and I was hooked. Gorgeous, dark pop, exactly what I was in the mood for the past couple days. Pair this with that equally dark, but lush new Brian Eno and you have a couple hours of really wonderful listening.

Very interested this after getting (and thoroughly enjoying) their live album earlier this year.

as good as their last album. "sonic bliss" is a good way to state it.

Is it more exciting than Your Mine & Ours? I liked on song, and the rest was sleep inducing. I sold it back after about a week.

i like "yours, mine & ours" better. & i agree with elephantstone, as nice as it is, it probably won't be near my top 20.

I think this is my least favorite Joe Pernice-related release (although I've never heard the earliest Scud Mountain Boys material) - sub-par lyrics and boring music.

I need to listen to this more, but I tend to agree. I have every Pernice-related album except for Chappaquiddick Skyline and it will have to be a major grower not to be my least favorite. This is the first Pernice album which actually has songs that I've disliked at first listen (don't ask me which ones).

np: The Undisputed Truth "Smiling Faces: The Best of the Undisputed Truth"

Never really been a huge fan, but when I saw them live after Yours, Mine and Ours came out, they bored me lots. The only highlight of the evening was "7:30" off of World Won't End. That song will always fucking rock.
